Without Egg, Sperm or Womb: Synthetic Embryo Models May Enable Growing Organs for Transplantation
An egg meets a sperm – that’s a necessary first step in life’s beginnings. In embryonic development research, it’s also a common first step. However, in a new study published on August 1, 2022, in the journal Cell, researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science have grown synthetic embryo models of mice outside the womb by starting solely with stem cells cultured in a petri dish. That means they are grown without the use of fertilized eggs. This method opens new horizons for studying how stem cells form various organs in the developing embryo. It may also one day make it possible to grow tissues and organs for transplantation using synthetic embryo models.
