Human eye cells in a mouse embryo (IMAGE)
Caption
The human cells (labelled green) are eye cells in a mouse embryo (labelled blue) at 17 days. The development of human pluripotent stem cells injected in a mouse embryo accelerates to match the much faster developmental pace of the mouse host embryo. Normally, eye cells in a human embryo are generated at a much later stage.
