Analysis of multi-lineage gene expression dynamics during primordial germ cell induction from human induced pluripotent stem cells
4 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In mammals, specification of primordial germ cells (PGCs) is established in the early post-implantation embryo. The bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-SMAD and WNT3-β-catenin signaling initiate the gene regulatory network for PGC specification. The activation of SOX17-BLIMP1 axis is critical for human PGC program. Moreover, EpCAM and INTEGRINα6 were identified as surface markers of human PGC-like cells...
