Together with more researchers at the University of Washington, the group found eight genes that convert iPS cells and ES cells of a mouse into cells that are quite similar to egg cells. The researchers also confirmed cell divisions of fertilized eggs. While the creation of egg cells from mouse stem cells formerly took about a month to produce some thousands, the discovery enables hundreds of thousands of eggs within five days. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Source:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asahi.com\/articles\/ASNDJ7H6KNDHTIPE023.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asahi<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \/ <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20201217\/5010010305.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK 1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \/ <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/news\/html\/20201217\/amp\/k10012768211000.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK 2<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-138048\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/kyudai-medical-depertment.jpg?resize=1024%2C641&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/kyudai-medical-depertment.jpg?resize=1024%2C641&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/kyudai-medical-depertment.jpg?resize=300%2C188&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/kyudai-medical-depertment.jpg?resize=768%2C481&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/kyudai-medical-depertment.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>Photo by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dent.kyushu-u.ac.jp\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kyudai Medical Department\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Disclaimer<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Fukuoka Now posts summaries of Kyushu area news for those who cannot read Japanese.
