Characterization of human embryonic stem cells with features of neoplastic progression

Abstract

Werbowetski-Ogilvie et al. show that cultured human embryonic stem (hES) cells that appear normal may in fact be partially transformed. Two such lines are found to have aberrant growth and differentiation properties and submicroscopic chromosomal abnormalities.
