Histone and Runx2 Gene Expression During Embryoid Body Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerHuman embryonic stem cells can be induced to form embryoid bodies which contain all three germ layers of the human body. Histone expression is tightly coupled to cell growth while Runx2 is essential for bone differentiation. This project tested the hypothesis that when stem cells cease to proliferate and differentiate into embryoid bodies, the Runx2 gene is induced.
