Characterization and culture of human embryonic stem cells
Article Abstract:
The assessment of human embryonic stem cells (hES) cells in the context of the ultimate use of the cells is discussed. It is suggested that examination of the epigenetic status of hES cells should also be included in the assessment of hES cell characteristics.

Production of pancreatic hormone-expressing endocrine cells from human embryonic stem cells
Article Abstract:
A differentiation process is developed that converts human embryonic stem (hES) cells to endocrine cells capable of synthesizing the pancreatic hormones insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide and ghrelin. Production of these hES cell-derived endocrine cells represents a critical step in the development of a renewable source of cells for diabetes cell therapy.
