Human embryonic stem cells contribute to embryonic and extraembryonic lineages in mouse embryos upon inhibition of apoptosis

Dear Editor, Recently, interspecies chimera formation has been established in rodents by injection of rat pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) into mouse early embryos, and such a system provides an in vivo assay to test the developmental potential of human PSCs (hPSCs) [1]. In addition, the interspecies c...

Summary:Dear Editor, Recently, interspecies chimera formation has been established in rodents by injection of rat pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) into mouse early embryos, and such a system provides an in vivo assay to test the developmental potential of human PSCs (hPSCs) [1]. In addition, the interspecies chimeras formed between hPSCs and large animal embryos would open new avenues to generate human tissues and organs for regenerative medicine [2]. In rodents, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs) have been derived from inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst and post-implantation epiblast respectively [3, 4].
