Abstract excerpt
Embryonic stem (ES) cells, derivatives of cells of early mammalian embryos, have turned out to be one of the most powerful tools in developmental and stem cell biology. When injected into embryos, ES cells can contribute to tissues derived from all three germ layers and to the germline. Amazingly, ES cells in culture are able to recapitulate features of embryonic development spontaneously. In addition to previous...
