In vitro differentiation of embryonic stem cells.
Under appropriate conditions in culture,embryonic stem cells will differentiate and form embryoid bodies that have been shown to contain cells of the hematopoietic,endothelial,muscle and neuronal lineages. Many aspects of the lineage-specific differentiation programs observed within the embryoid bodies reflect those found in the embryo,indicating that this model system provides access to early cell populations that develop in a normal fashion. Recent studies involving the differentiation of genetically altered embryonic stem cells highlight the potential of this in vitro differentiation system for defining the function of genes in early development.

Targeted mutagenesis: analysis of phenotype without germ line transmission.
The available techniques for directed gene manipulation in the mouse are unprecedented in any multicellular organism and make the mouse an invaluable tool for unraveling all aspects of mammalian biology. To realize fully the potential of these genetic tools requires that phenotypic analysis be efficient,rapid,and complete. Genetic chimeras and mosaics,in which mutant cells are mixed with wild-type cells,can be used to augment standard analysis of intact mutant animals and alleviate the time required and the expense involved in generating and maintaining multiple strains of mutant mice.
