Publication by Ngondo et al.: Fast in vitro procedure to identify extraembryonic differentiation defect of mouse embryonic stem cells.

Mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) are a powerful model to study early mouse development. These blastocyst-derived cells can maintain pluripotency and differentiate into the three embryonic germ layers and an extraembryonic layer, the extraembryonic endoderm (ExEn). Here, we present a fast procedure to identify a differentiation defect of mESCs toward ExEn in vitro through the molecular and cellular characterization of embryoid bodies, followed by direct differentiation of mESCs into ExEn.
