This study establishes a feeder-free method to generate human extended pluripotent stem cells (EPSCs) using Matrigel and chemical compounds, demonstrating their pluripotency through molecular and chimeric assays.

This study shows that over-expressing PPARγ in pig skeletal muscle increases intramuscular fat and oxidative fiber formation without changing lean mass.

The paper uses CRISPR screening in porcine cells to identify host factors essential for Japanese encephalitis virus replication and entry.
