This study shows that STAT3 signaling is crucial for tissue expansion during postimplantation mouse development by promoting cell proliferation and differentiation.

The paper shows that disabling de novo DNA methylation in embryonic stem cells causes them to adopt a trophoblast fate instead of proper differentiation, due to misexpression of Ascl2.

The paper identifies and characterizes formative stem cells in mice and humans, showing they have unique transcriptional and epigenetic features compared to naive and primed pluripotent cells.

The paper shows that MTA proteins in ES cell NuRD complex are functionally redundant, and NuRD is essential for maintaining differentiation trajectory during early lineage commitment.
