S23-388 New method of maintaining/sustaining mammalian embryonic stem cell pluripotency in culture Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) arise during early embryogenesis and can give rise to entire animals. Yet, comprehension of pluripotency regulation remains incomplete, highly species-specific, and primarily limited to mouse and human.
