Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic stem cells in vitro - FunGenES: IMM-1: Neural Differentiation of Embryonic Stem Cells in vitro: a Road Map to Neurogenesis in the Embryo

ABSTRACT: This experiment is part of the FunGenES project (FunGenES - "Functional Genomics in Embryonic Stem Cells" partially funded by the 6th Framework Programme of the European Union, http://www.fungenes.org). The experiment was conducted at the "Instituto de Medicina Molecular,Faculdade de Medicina de Lisboa", Portugal. Goal of the experiment is the in vitro generation and characterisation of neurons from embryonic stem (ES) cells. This is a promising approach to produce cells suitable for neural tissue repair and cell-based replacement therapies of the nervous system. Available methods to promote ES cell differentiation towards neural lineages try to replicate, in different ways, the multistep process of embryonic neural development. However, to achieve this aim in an efficient and reproducible
