Conversion of Fibroblasts into Functional Trophoblast Stem-like Cells

ABSTRACT: Here we demonstrate the generation of stable induced trophoblast stem cells (iTSCs) from fibroblasts by the transient expression of Gata3, Eomes and Tfap2c. Transcriptome and methylome analyses and functional assays such as hemorrhagic lesion formation and placenta contribution suggested a high degree of conversion. Careful examination of the reprogramming process indicated that the cells did not go through a transient pluripotent state. Detect and compare different H2A.X deposition patterns in ES cells,MEFs and iTSC and TS cells, with Illumina HiSeq 2000
