Effect of Oxygen Tension on the Amino Acid Utilisation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells

Background/Aims: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a potential source of cells for treatment of many degenerative diseases, but in culture have a propensity to spontaneously differentiate, possibly due to suboptimal conditions. Culture at low oxygen tensions improves hESC maintenance and regula...
