Specification of human germ cell fate with enhanced progression capability supported by hindgut organoids

Summary: Human primordial germ cells (hPGCs), the precursors of sperm and eggs, are specified during weeks 2−3 after fertilization. Few studies on ex vivo and in vitro cultured human embryos reported plausible hPGCs on embryonic day (E) 12−13 and in an E16−17 gastrulating embryo. In vitro, hPGC-like...
