Abstract excerpt
Mouse embryonic stem cells can differentiate into various cell types within cell aggregates called embryoid bodies (EBs). This structure consists of ectodermal, mesodermal, and endodermal tissues, which resemble the embryo of egg-cylinder stage. After 8-10 days in culture, about half of the EBs e...
