Parthenogenetic embryonic stem (ES) cells with two oocyte-derived genomes (uniparental) have been proposed as a source of autologous tissue for transplantation. The therapeutic applicability of any uniparental cell type is uncertain due to the consequences of genomic imprinting that in mammalian uniparental tissues causes unbalanced expression of imprinted genes. We transplanted uniparental fetal liver cells into lethally irradiated adult mice to test their capacity to replace adult hematopoieti ...[more]
