Post-implantation epiblast maturation and patterning of anterior-posterior axis in mouse embryonic development are mediated by pluripotency transcription factor Zfp281 through transcriptional and epigenetic control of Nodal signaling.

Genetic manipulations show that endogenous transcription factors of the SoxB1 class act redundantly to maintain primed pluripotency and reveal differential effects on transitions between pluripotent and differentiation states.

Micropatterned differentiation of mouse pluripotent stem cells gives rise to regionally distinct cell types arising in embryos at gastrulation.

Silencing of gene regulatory elements by modifications of DNA-bound proteins promotes the progression of early mouse development.

A combination of single-cell techniques and computational analysis enables the simultaneous discovery of cell states, lineage relationships and the genes that control developmental decisions.

Guidelines governing research into embryos need to be updated in a way that reflects the moral status of synthetic human entities generated using the methods of synthetic biology.

Why does a totipotent state linger within the inner cell mass of mouse embryos?.

DNA methylation deposition is dependent on the presence of H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 histone marks.

A tumor-specific regulatory region has been identified upstream of the Myc oncogene.
