Use of Human Amnion Epithelial Cells as a Feeder Layer to Support Undifferentiated Growth of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells
1 Jun 2009
Abstract excerpt
Mouse and human embryonic stem (ES) cells are usually maintained in an undifferentiated state by coculture with mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) as feeder cells. In the case of mouse ES cells, addition of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) to culture media is also necessary to prevent cell differentiation. Here, we report the use of primary human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) as feeder cells to culture mouse ES...
