Effects of Mouse Strain on Establishment of Embryonic Stem Cell Lines
Purpose: Embryonic stem (ES) cells are derived from the inner cell mass of blastocysts with self-renewal and pluripotency characteristics. These cells have potential for studies of in vitro differentiation, gene function, etc. This study was, therefore, initiated to establish new ES lines and evaluate the effects of strain on ES cell production. Materials and Methods: 3-5 day blastocysts were ...
متن کاملDerivation of human embryonic stem cell lines.
Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) are undifferentiated cells derived from an early embryo that can grow in vitro indefinitely, while retaining their capability to differentiate into specialized somatic cell types. Over the last decade there has been great interest in derivation and culture of these cells, as they can potentially provide a supply of readily available differentiated cells and tis...
متن کاملEstablishment of human embryonic stem cell lines from frozen-thawed blastocysts using STO cell feeder layers.
BACKGROUND Recently, human embryonic stem (hES) cells have become very important resources for basic research on cell replacement therapy and other medical applications. The purpose of this study was to test whether pluripotent hES cell lines could be successfully derived from frozen-thawed embryos that were destined to be discarded after 5 years in a routine human IVF-embryo transfer programme...
متن کاملNew human embryonic stem-cell lines--more is better.
It is rare that a field of scientific research can simultaneously represent a domain of fundamental discovery in human biology and potentially have major effects on human health and the quality of life. Human embryonic stem cells serve not only as a resource for basic research, but also as the starting material for the development of cell-based therapies. Formidable scientific challenges face t...
متن کاملDifferences between human embryonic stem cell lines.
The promise of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines for treating injuries and degenerative diseases, for understanding early human development, for disease modelling and for drug discovery, has brought much excitement to scientific communities as well as to the public. Although all of the lines derived worldwide share the expression of characteristic pluripotency markers, many differences are...
