Complete and unidirectional conversion of human embryonic stem cells to trophoblast by BMP4
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) exposed to the growth factor bone morphogenic protein 4 (BMP4) in the absence of FGF2 have been used to study the development of placental trophoblasts, but the soundness of this model has been challenged by others who concluded that the directional differentiation was primarily toward the mesoderm lineage rather than trophoblast. Here we identify key culture conditions necessary for BMP4 to convert hESC to an epithelium that expresses a full range of trophoblast markers, demonstrates invasive properties, and releases large quantities of placental hormones, with no evidence for mesoderm formation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
