“…These similarities are defined in many aspects including dependence on activin A and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) signaling pathway (Li and Belmonte, 2017), their transcriptional and epigenetic profiles, random X-chromosome inactivation, culture requirements and morphology and their differentiation capacities (Brons et al, 2007;Tesar et al, 2007). Recently, numerous attempts have been made to generate human naïve PSCs by the resetting of primed PSCs (Hanna et al, 2010;Gafni et al, 2013;Takashima et al, 2014), as well as somatic cellular reprograming (Liu et al, 2017;Kilens et al, 2018;Giulitti et al, 2019). It has also been reported that hESCs isolated from preimplantation ICM could be cultured in vitro to acquire a naïve pluripotent state (Guo et al, 2016).…”
