Inefficient reprogramming of the hematopoietic stem cell genome following nuclear transfer

Abstract excerpt

In general, cloning undifferentiated preimplantation embryos (blastomeres) or embryonic stem cells is more efficient than cloning differentiated somatic cells. Therefore, there has been an assumption that tissue-specific stem cells might serve as efficient donors for nuclear transfer because of the undifferentiated state of their genome. Here, we show that this is not the case with adult hematopoietic stem cells...
