Very happy to share the work of Huanhuan Li et al. While not a natural embryo, you might not have known that if I hadn’t told you. (1/3)

1/n Fun journey continues: Our new @cp-cellstemcell.bsky.social paper out on how the Inherent & Dormant Plasticity of Mouse Naive PSCs can be "Exaggerated" to Directly form ~E8.5 Transgene-Free (TF) Mouse SEMs & WITHOUT inducing 8-16-Morula-like "Embryo Founder Cells".

Transgene-free generation of mouse post-gastrulation whole embryo models solely from naive ESCs and iPSCs

Hanna and colleagues show that signaling pathway modulation amplifies the inherent flexibility of genetically unmodified mouse naive PSCs to adopt extra-embryonic cell fate potential. This endows them...

⚠️ I am really excited to share the work of Anastasios Balaskas, an excellent PhD candidate in the lab, with the wider world. Tasos made a significant advance: generating a stem cell-based embryo model that contains both posterior and anterior neural tissues of the late-stage gastrulating embryo.

How innate immunity starts? Early embryos eliminate bacterial infections by epithelial phagocytosis, a conserved process from zebrafish to human embryos. Check our story:
