Primordial Germ Cell-Like Cells Differentiated In Vitro from Skin-Derived Stem Cells
11 Dec 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We have previously demonstrated that stem cells isolated from fetal porcine skin have the potential to form oocyte-like cells (OLCs) in vitro. However, primordial germ cells (PGCs), which must also be specified during the stem cell differentiation to give rise to these putative oocytes at more advanced stages of culture, were not systematically characterized. The current study tested the hypothesis...
