摘要:: The haematopoietic development of embryonic stem (ES) cell injection chimaeras was analysed using beta-galactosidase expression from an X-linked transgene as a marker to distinguish the ES-derived cell population from the host cells. The number of cells in the different haematopoietic cell subpopulations was determined by flow cytometry. When the proportions of ES-derived cells in the antigen-positive lineages were compared to the ES cell contribution to all cells in teh organs, we found an unexpected bias in the haematopoietic differentiation of ES-derived cells. ES descendants were overrepresented in the bone marrow B lymphoid cell population and the splenic myeloid cells but were underrepresented in the CD4-positive T lymphoid cells in the spleen. These results were obtained by comparison with control female animals that were X chromosome mosaic for beta-galactosidase expression. These findings of uneven contribution to haematopoietic development by ES cells indicate that the commitment of ES cell descendants may be different from that of the host cells.
