Preventing erosion of X-chromosome inactivation in human embryonic stem cells
Cloutier et al. discover that human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) cultured with media containing inhibitors of GSK3 proteins undergo erosion of X-chromosome inactivation, which equalizes X-linked gene expression between females and males. The findings inform the faithful culture of hESCs.
