Description
BACKGROUND The gene noggin, originally cloned in Xenopus, encodes a secreted factor expressed in the Spemann organizer, where it functions to oppose the ventralizing influence of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). Noggin protein acts by binding directly to BMPs, thereby preventing them from interacting with their receptors. The interaction between BMPs and Noggin, is critical for normal development.1 Recently, it was shown that Noggin and bFGF cooperate to maintain the pluripotency of human embryonic stem cells in the absence of feeder layers. This feeder-free culture system will provide a more reliable alternative for future therapeutic applications of hES cells.2
