Isolation of Murine and Porcine Fetal Stem Cells from Somatic Tissue1
23 Dec 2004
Abstract excerpt
Adult stem cells have been previously isolated from a variety of somatic tissues, including bone marrow and the central nervous system; however, contribution of these cells to the germ line has not been shown. Here we demonstrate that fetal somatic explants contain a subpopulation of somatic stem cells (FSSCs), which can be induced to display features of lineage-uncommitted stem cells. After injection into...
