Abstract: |
Novel cultured inner cell mass (CICM) cells, and cell lines, derived from ungulates, in particular, pigs and cows, and methods for their preparation are provided. The subject CICMs possess similar morphology and express cell markers identically or substantially similarly to ICMs of undifferentiated developing embryos for prolonged culturing periods. Heterologous DNAs may be introduced into the subject CICM cells and cell lines to produce transgenic cells useful for the production of transgenic embryos, fetuses and/or offspring, e.g., by nuclear transfer procedures.

First Claim:
Show all 14 claims |
What is claimed is:
1. A method for producing a bovine or porcine cultured inner cell mass (CICM) cell which may be incorporated into a bovine or porcine embryo to form a chimeric bovine or porcine which consists essentially of the following steps:
- (i) obtaining inner cell mass (ICM) cells from a bovine or porcine blastocyst or ICM progenitor cells from a bovine or porcine preblastocyst stage embryo;
- (ii) culturing said ICM or ICM progenitor cells on a feeder layer culture to produce multilayer cell colonies;
- (iii) identifying from among the cells contained in the cultured ICM or ICM progenitor cell colony those cells which exhibit the following properties:
- (a) small cytoplasmic/nuclear volume ratio ranging from about 10/90 to 50/50;
- (b) cytoplasmic vesicles;
- (c) small individual cells ranging from about 10 to 20 µm in diameter;
- (iv) separating one or a cluster of said identified cells from the rest of the cell colony; and
- (v) passaging said separated ICM or ICM progenitor cells onto another feeder layer culture and maintaining physical contact between the feeder cell layer and the separated cell or cell cluster throughout the entire culturing period to produce CICM cells that may be incorporated into a bovine or porcine embryo to form a chimeric bovine or porcine.
