A recent Nature study evaluates post-implantation development in humans using embryo-like models based on genetically unmodified human naïve embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Study: Complete human day ...

Because these blastoids only use ESCs derived from the epiblast, which becomes the embryo proper with germ layers, they model embryonic development’s pre-implantation period, up to seven days post ...

Cellular aggregates derived from human stem cells in previous studies could not be considered genuinely accurate human embryo models, because they lacked nearly all the defining hallmarks of a ...

She and her team have now started to study post-implantation embryo development and gastrulation, during which all the organs and tissues of the human body are formed. With 80 per cent of ...

Previous attempts lacked the defining characteristics of a post-implantation embryo, namely the many cell types that are required to form the placenta and other critical elements. They also weren ...

The model mimics the 3D structure and key hallmarks of post-implantation human embryos up with all the known features found in normal embryos around two weeks old. Known as stem cell-based embryo ...

Research from Ph.D. candidate Bohan Chen in the lab of Idse Heemskerk of the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology at ...

In this issue of BioTechniques, we present a simplified in situ hybridization protocol for planarians, considerations for colorblind individuals when developing colorimetric or fluorescent dye assays, ...
