Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular to a pluripotent stem cell culture medium containing maternal factors. Background Technology

[0002] During animal fertilization, sperm mainly release the male pronucleus into the egg. In the zygote formed, the female and male pronuclei fuse to form the zygote nucleus. However, the genome of the fertilized egg is not transcribed during the first few mitotic divisions. A reasonable logical assumption is that its early development depends entirely on the RNA and proteins stored in the egg plasma, i.e., maternal factors.

[0003] Recent research has used a four-factor expression cassette (Hsf1, Zar1, Padi6, and Npm2) to directly convert mouse or human somatic cells into 2C-like pluripotent stem cells (MFi2CLTSCs) in vitro, expressing 2C markers such as MERVL and Zscan4, and enabling them to form blastocysts and chimeric embryos. This strategy avoids the drawbacks of iPSCs (tumor risk), SCNTs (oocyte source limitation), and EPSCs (insufficient small molecule specificity), providing a highly efficient and controllable new approach for regenerative medicine, endangered species conservation, and the preparation of oocyte-free pluripotent cells. However, how to effectively improve the induction efficiency of pluripotent stem cells using maternal factors remains an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
