Orthotropic liver transplantation is the only established treatment for end-stage liver diseases. Utilization of hepatocyte transplantation and bio-artificial liver devices as alternative therapeutic approaches requires an unlimited source of hepatocytes. Stem cells, especially embryonic stem cells,
## Abstract Human embryonic stem (hES) cells are typically maintained on mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) feeders or with MEFβconditioned medium. However, these xenosupport systems greatly limit the therapeutic applications of hES cells because of the risk of crossβtransfer of animal pathogens. The
