Giant panda fibroblasts, but not red panda or Asiatic lion fibroblasts, are able to generate m-SKPs after passage and cryopreservation.

, 2015
Fibroblast cultures from red panda (a) and Asiatic lion (b) were unable to generate m-SKPs. Female giant panda fibroblasts cultures were able to generate m-SKPs (c).
