## Abstract Embryonic stem cells have an unlimited potential for selfβrenewal yet are pluripotent, capable of differentiating into three different germ layers and ultimately into multiple cell lineages. Key pluripotency specific factors maintain an undifferentiated ES cell phenotype while lineage s

## Abstract Cardiovascular disease is one of leading causes of death throughout the U.S. and the world. The damage of cardiomyocytes resulting from ischemic injury is irreversible and leads to the development of progressive heart failure, which is characterized by the loss of functional cardiomyocy
## Abstract Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are derived from inner cell mass (ICM). The selfβrenewal and pluripotency are the main specificities of ES cells, which are likely to reveal a deeper understanding of human cellular biology and which are considered to be promising sources for cell therapy
## Abstract The MAPK/Erk signaling pathway is considered as a key regulator of the pluripotency and differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells, while dualβspecificity protein phosphatases (DUSPs) are negative regulators of MAPK. Although DUSPs are potential embryogenesis regulators, their functio
## Abstract Availability of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) has enhanced human neural differentiation research. The derivation of neural progenitor (NP) cells from hESC facilitates the interrogation of human embryonic development through the generation of neuronal subtypes and supporting glial ce
