The Wnt/TCF7L1 transcriptional repressor axis drives primitive endoderm formation by antagonizing naive and formative pluripotency

Signal transduction and gene expression regulation via downstream transcription factors shape the early mammalian embryo. Here the authors show that Wnt/TCF7L1 transcriptional repressive activity is required for primitive endoderm lineage formation.
