Activation of ectopic Oct-4 and Rex-1 promoters in human amniotic fluid cells
1 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
Recently, amniotic fluid was suggested as a new source for stem-cell research and tissue engineering approaches. In order to enable isolation of stem cells and establishment of lines of such cells with an undifferentiated phenotype we have introduced green fluorescent protein regulated by the promoters of the stem cell-specific genes, Oct-4 or Rex-1, into human amniotic fluid cells. For the introduction of DNA...
