miR-27 negatively regulates pluripotency-associated genes in human embryonal carcinoma cells. [PDF]
Human embryonic stem cells and human embryonal carcinoma cells have been studied extensively with respect to the transcription factors (OCT4, SOX2 and NANOG), epigenetic modulators and associated signalling pathways that either promote self-renewal or ...
