In Vivo Generation of Lung and Thyroid Tissues from Embryonic Stem Cells using Blastocyst Complementation.

CONCLUSIONS: Lung and thyroid tissues were generated in vivo from ESCs by blastocyst complementation. Nkx2-1-/- chimeras can be used as "bioreactors" for in vivo differentiation and functional studies of ESC-derived progenitor cells. PMID: 32877203 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
