Generating porcine chimeras using inner cell mass cells and parthenogenetic preimplantation embryos.

Generating porcine chimeras using inner cell mass cells and parthenogenetic preimplantation embryos.

BACKGROUND: The development and validation of stem cell therapies using induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can be optimized through translational research using pigs as large animal models, because pigs have the closest characteristics to humans among non-primate animals. As the recent investigati...
