Significats de human embryogenesis en anglès

Network-based comparative transcriptome analysis will contribute to an increase in knowledge about human embryogenesis, particularly when only transcriptome data are currently available.

With the scarcity of availability of human embryos for research, hESC can be used as an alternative source to study the early human embryogenesis.

Early human embryogenesis relies on maternal gene products accumulated during oocyte growth and maturation, until around day-3 post-fertilization when human zygotic genome activation occurs.

Our results represent a significant step in characterization of early human embryogenesis and provide a resource for understanding human development and for stem cell engineering.
