The selection arena in early human blastocysts resolves the pluripotent inner cell mass
2018-05-18
Abstract excerpt
Is the human early embryo unique in lacking an inner cell mass (ICM) and having parallel rather than step-wise development? Here we reanalyse single-cell transcriptomic data and stain human embryos in situ to reveal both classical step-wise development and the missing ICM, a transcriptomic homolog of macaque ICM, that differentiates to epiblast and primitive endoderm. This apparent classicism obscures numerous fea...
