The first step involves injection of these cells into a developing mouse embryo (Figure 4). This step allows the heterozygous knockout ES cells to become part of the developing embryo. Then ...

beyond needing a female mouse to gestate the embryos generated. Their results were published last month in the journal Cell Stem Cell. This new procedure developed by Li and colleagues combats a ...

UdeM reproductive biologist Greg FitzHarris and his team show for the first time that sister cells can communicate with each ...

A team of stem cell scientists have successfully used embryonic stem cell engineering to create a bi-paternal mouse—a mouse with two male parents—that lived until adulthood. Their results ...

Clumps of embryonic stem cells given one brief molecular stimulation start arranging themselves in a way that resembles a mouse embryo, down to the timing of when the cells switch on particular ...

Each mouse embryo floats in a glass jar, suspended in a concoction of liquid nutrients. A carousel of jars slowly spins around night and day to keep the embryos from attaching to the sides of the ...

These have involved a phenomenon called parthenogenesis in which an embryo forms from an egg without fertilization. In the new study, mice were created through genetic editing of mouse embryonic ...

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences say they have succeeded in breeding mice using only genetic material from two males. Through a technique called 'embryonic stem cell engineering ...

A team of stem cell scientists successfully spawned mice from two ... haploid cell nuclear injection and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Only 11.8% of the embryos succeeded in developing ...

Asingle type of mouse stem cell can generate a structure in culture capable of self-organizing to generate both embryonic cells and those that are the precursor to the placenta, according to a study ...
