Differential transcriptional regulation of the NANOG gene in chicken primordial germ cells and embryonic stem cells

Functional Concentrations of BMP4 on Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells to Primordial Germ Cells

The effect of BMP4 on mouse embryonic stem cell proliferation and differentiation into primordial germ cells

Background and Aim: Artificial gamete production from stem cells is a novel strategy for treatment of infertility. Among various stem cell sources, embryonic stem cells (ESC) can be considered as an appropriate source for in vitro formation of germ cells. In this study we evaluated the effect of BMP4 on proliferation and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into primordial germ cells (...

A vector-based system for the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells toward germ-line cells

Objective(s):To culture thein vitro mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and to direct their  differentiation to germ-line cells; in present study we used a vector backbone containing the fusion construct Stra8-EGFP to select differentiated ES cells that entered meiosis.  Retinoic acid was used to differentiate embryonic stem cells to germ cells. Materials and Methods: A fragment of Stra8 gene pr...

isolation, culture and characterization of chicken primordial germ cells

nowadays, production of recombinant proteins in eukaryotes is gaining good deal of attention. transgenic chicken as a eukaryotic system has a high potential for producing recombinant proteins. post-translational changes, especially glycosylation, are characteristic of the eukaryotic proteins. in practice we need to choose a proper expressing host when considering over-expression of a recombinan...
