title: Developing reagents and conditions to induce mesoderm subsets from ES cells.
abstract: Embryonic stem (ES) cell differentiation can serve as a model to investigate early stages of development. Nishikawa and colleagues, in a recent issue of Stem Cells (Era et al., 2007), have used selectable markers to detect lineage-specific gene expression and dissect the induction of mesoderm subsets in ES cell cultures.
