Show abstract
The spinal cord, nerves, and skeletal muscles arise from neuromesodermal progenitors (NMPs). We have developed a growth-factor screening strategy, utilizing ES and iPS cells, facilitating the indefinite self-renewal of two types of human axial stem cells (AxSCs), closely resembling mouse NMPs (NM-AxSCs) and posterior neural tube progenitors (N-AxSCs). Under specific regimens-- Wnt/CHIR99021, FGF2, and TGF-{beta} inhibitor SB431542 (CFS) and excluding FGF2 (CS), respectively--these AxSCs self-renew and sustain telomeres. Single cell transcriptomics and proteomics have revealed expression of posterior growth-zone and dorsoventral neural tube markers in NM-AxSCs, and correspondingly, differentiation to a wide spectrum of neural tube neurons and myocytes. N-AxSCs rapidly matured into dorsal sensory subsets and neural crest. Crucially, neither AxSC type produces teratomas, and analogous mouse NM-AxSCs integrated successfully into the neural tube and somites. Capturing of AxSCs from patient and GMP ES / iPS cells without transgenesis unveils ontogeny and promises modeling and therapy in neuropathies.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
