  • The endoderm layer destined to be primitive gut is a mosaic of earlier visceral endoderm and definitive endoderm that arises later, during gastrulation. Live imaging now reveals that in mouse embryos, definitive endoderm cells egress from underlying mesoderm and intercalate into the overlying cell layer. This process requires SOX17-mediated control of basement membrane organization.

  • The early stages of human development are normally hidden within the womb, but improved techniques for culturing embryos from the blastocyst stage promise to make these steps easier to investigate. See Letter p.251

  • Researchers have engineered embryonic stem-like cells from normal mouse skin cells. If this method can be translated to humans, patient-specific stem cells could be made without the use of donated eggs or embryos.

  • Early cell-lineage decisions during embryonic development differ between mice and cows. This finding calls for a re-examination of developmental variations across mammals, but does not undermine use of the mouse as a model organism.

  • Wong et al. differentiate human pluripotent stem cells into mature airway epithelial cells expressing CFTR, a gene involved in cystic fibrosis. Applying the method to induced pluripotent stem cells derived from cystic fibrosis patients provides a renewable source of cells for drug screening.

  • In a recent paper in Cell Research, Yu et al. show that maternally inherited Yes-associated protein (Yap), a co-activator of TEAD family transcription factors, plays a key role in activating embryonic transcription following fertilization in the mouse.
