Generation of germ cells from pluripotent stem cells in mammals
10 Dec 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The germ cell lineage transmits genetic and epigenetic information to the next generation. Primordial germ cells (PGCs), the early embryonic precursors of sperm or eggs, have been studied extensively. Recently, in vitro models of PGC induction have been established in the mouse. Many attempts are reported to enhance our understanding of PGC development in other mammals, including human. METHODS: Here,...
