Primate embryogenesis predicts the hallmarks of human naïve pluripotency

T Boroviak, J Nichols - Development, 2017 - journals.biologists.com
Naïve pluripotent mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) resemble the preimplantation epiblast

Epigenetic differences between naïve and primed pluripotent stem cells

S Takahashi, S Kobayashi, I Hiratani - Cellular and Molecular Life …, 2018 - Springer
It has been 8 years since the concept of naïve and primed pluripotent stem cell states was
first proposed. Both are states of pluripotency, but exhibit slightly different properties. The …
