Downregulation of NANOG Induces Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells to Extraembryonic Lineages
28 Jun 2005
Abstract excerpt
The homeobox transcription factor Nanog has been proposed to play a crucial role in the maintenance of the undifferentiated state of murine embryonic stem cells. A human counterpart, NANOG, has been identified, but its function and localization have not hitherto been described. We have used a combination of RNA interference and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to study NANOG in human embryonic...
