Summary:
Using a newly derived line of human embryonic stem cells, Rockefeller University researchers have coaxed human cells to grow in mouse tissue. The result is a groundbreaking means of both elucidating the beginning of human embryonic development and serving as the starting point from which to understand their potential therapeutic secrets of human embryonic stem cells. The finding provides the research community with a new template for studying the early decisions that an embryo makes as it develops into various body tissues.
Maybe this finding will provide researchers with new insghts into embryonic cell differentiation in order to eventually enable human embryonic stem cells to differentiation into various human tissues in order to treat diseases, injuries and conditions.
