Induction of Human Trophoblast Stem Cells from Somatic Cells and Pluripotent Stem Cells
1 Nov 2020
Abstract excerpt
Human trophoblast stem cells (hTSCs) derived from blastocysts and first-trimester cytotrophoblasts offer an unprecedented opportunity to study the placenta. However, access to human embryos and first-trimester placentas is limited, thus preventing the establishment of hTSCs from diverse genetic backgrounds associated with placental disorders. Here, we show that hTSCs can be generated from numerous genetic...
