Comparative Analysis of the Developmental Competence of Three Human Embryonic Stem Cell Lines in Vitro
1 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
One of the goals of stem cell technology is to control the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), thereby generating large numbers of specific cell types for many applications including cell replacement therapy. Although individual hESC lines resemble each other in expressing pluripotency markers and telomerase activity, it is not clear whether they are equivalent in their developmental potential...
