Differentiation of Human and Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells along a Hepatocyte Lineage

Embryonic stem (ES) cells may differentiate along a hepatocyte lineage; however, currently there are no reports of culture conditions yielding high levels of hepatocyte-specific gene expression in these cells. We investigated culture conditions for differentiating ES cells into hepatocyte-like cells...
