Recent advances in human naive pluripotent stem cell culture have demonstrated their ability to generate trophectoderm and descendant trophoblast cell types. Moreover, the same cells when cultured in three-dimensional configurations self-organize to generate blastocyst-like structures called blastoids. These discoveries represent a major step forward in modeling early human embryonic development.
近年来,人类原始多能干细胞培养的进展表明,它们能够生成滋养外胚层和其后代滋养层细胞类型。此外,当这些细胞在三维环境中培养时,它们会自我组织形成类似囊胚的结构,称为类囊胚。这些发现代表着在模拟早期人类胚胎发育方面迈出了重要的一步。
