Enhanced gene trapping in mouse embryonic stem cells
Gene trapping is used to introduce insertional mutations into genes of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). It is performed with gene trap vectors that simultaneously mutate and report the expression of the endogenous gene at the site of insertion and ...

Regulation of boundary cap neural crest stem cell differentiation after transplantation [PDF]
Success of cell replacement therapies for neurological disorders will depend largely on the optimization of strategies to enhance viability and control the developmental fate of stem cells after transplantation.

Development and application of haploid embryonic stem cells
Haploid cells are a kind of cells with only one set of chromosomes. Compared with traditional diploid cells, haploid cells have unique advantages in gene screening and drug-targeted therapy, due to their phenotype being equal to the genotype.

Embryos, Clones, and Stem Cells: A Scientific Primer
This article is intended to give the nonspecialist an insight into the nuances of “clones”, cloning, and stem cells. It distinguishes embryonic and adult stem cells, their normal function in the organism, their origin, and how they are recovered to ...

Human embryonic stem cells have unique value for regenerative medicine, as they are capable of differentiating into a broad variety of cell types. Therefore, defining the signalling pathways that control early cell fate decisions of pluripotent stem ...

Neuronal induction and regional identity by co-culture of adherent human embryonic stem cells with chicken notochords and somites [PDF]
The role of somites and notochords in neuroectoderm differentiation from the embryonic ectoderm and its subsequent patterning into regional compartments along rostro-caudal and dorso-ventral axes, especially in humans, remains elusive.

Global DNA hypomethylation prevents consolidation of differentiation programs and allows reversion to the embryonic stem cell state. [PDF]
DNA methylation patterns change dynamically during mammalian development and lineage specification, yet scarce information is available about how DNA methylation affects gene expression profiles upon differentiation.

Deriving bovine embryonic stem-like cells in defined conditions
The first embryonic stem ES cell line was isolated from mouse in 1981 (Evans and Kaufman 1981; Martin1981). However, ESCs are only available in rodent species.

Isolation and characterisation of mouse amniotic fluid stem cells: study of their origin, regenerative potential and reprogramming into pluripotent cells [PDF]
Introduction: Stem cells are defined by their ability to proliferate for a long period of time, a property known as ‘self-renewal’, and to give rise to differentiated cells.
