Dynamic pluripotent stem cell (PSC) states are in vitro adaptations of the pluripotency continuum in vivo. Previous studies have generated a number of PSCs with distinct properties. By modulating the FGF, TGF-β, and WNT pathways, we have derived intermediate PSCs (FTW-PSCs) that are permissive for direct primordial germ cell-like cell (PGC-LC) induction in vitro. Here, we describe the method for derivation and maintenance of mouse and human FTW-PSCs, as well as PGC-LC induction from FTW-PSCs.
动态多能干细胞(PSC)状态是体内多能性连续统的体外适应。先前的研究已经产生了许多具有不同特性的 PSC。通过调节 FGF、TGF-β 和 WNT 途径,我们已经衍生出了中间 PSC(FTW-PSC),它们在体外允许直接诱导原始生殖细胞样细胞(PGC-LC)。在这里,我们描述了从鼠和人 FTW-PSC 中诱导和维持 PGC-LC 的方法。
