Journal ArticleDOI

Screening ethnically diverse human embryonic stem cells identifies a chromosome 20 minimal amplicon conferring growth advantage

Katherine Amps, +124 more
- 27 Nov 2011 - 
TL;DR: Of these genes, BCL2L1 is a strong candidate for driving culture adaptation of ES cells, and single-nucleotide polymorphism analysis revealed that they included representatives of most major ethnic groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Embryonic Stem Cells as Models for Aneuploid Chromosomal Syndromes

TL;DR: The results presented here suggest that aneuploid embryos can serve as an alternative source for either normal euploid or aneuPLoid hESC lines, which represent an invaluable tool to study developmental aspects of chromosomal abnormalities in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Derivation of euploid human embryonic stem cells from aneuploid embryos.

TL;DR: This study used blastocyst‐stage embryos diagnosed as aneuploid in preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) to isolate new lines of HESCs, and karyotype analysis of the HESC lines that were derived showed that the cell lines carry a normal euploid karyotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differentiation of Human Limbal-Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Into Limbal-Like Epithelium

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to generate human iPSCs and direct them to limbal differentiation by maintaining them on natural substrata mimicking the native LESC niche, including feederless denuded human amniotic membrane and de‐epithelialized corneas.
