METHODS FOR CONTROLLING STEM CELL DIFFERENTIATION

摘要

Disclosed herein are methods for controlling stem cell differentiation through the introduction of transgenes having Xic, Tsix, or Xite sequences to block differentiation and the removal of the transgenes to allow differentiation. Also disclosed are small RNA molecules and methods for using the small RNA molecules to control stem cell differentiation. Also disclosed are stem cells genetically modified by the introduction of Xic, Tsix, or Xite sequences.
