Summary (written by the submitters)

The application of human embryonic stem (ES) cells in medicine and biology has an inherent reliance on understanding the starting cell population. Human ES cells differ from mouse ES cells and the specific embryonic origin of both cell types is unclear. Previous work suggested that mouse ES cells could only be obtained from the embryo before implantation in the uterus1–5.

Here we show that cell lines can be derived from the epiblast, a tissue of the postimplantation embryo that generates the embryo proper. These cells, which we refer to as EpiSCs (post-implantation epiblastderived ES cells), express transcription factors known to regulate pluripotency, maintain their genomic integrity, and robustly differentiate into the major somatic cell types as well as primordial germ cells. The EpiSC lines are distinct from mouse ES cells in their epigenetic state and the signals controlling their differentiation. Furthermore, EpiSC and human ES cells share patterns of gene expression and signalling responses that normally function in the epiblast. These results show that epiblast cells can be maintained as stable cell lines and interrogated to understand how pluripotent cells generate distinct fates during early development. *Note: EpiSCs were previously referred to as post-ES cells Keywords: cell type comparison

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need.

All supplementary files ↗

3 · The original raw files

Whole study · RAW.tar

Everything the authors deposited as one archive (GSE7866_RAW.tar), including the raw array or instrument files. Can be large; the picker in step 2 takes just the samples you need.

Whole study · RAW.tar ↓

What the files usually look like: For arrays the series matrix is normally the normalised expression table you want; the raw array files (CEL and similar) are in the RAW.tar.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA105501. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
