Title: | Nutrient uptake strategies shift during mouse epiblast development |
Abstract: | Murine blastocysts and embryonic stem cells mimicking the pre-implantation epiblast import extracellular protein through macropinocytosis and engage a robust lysosomal digestive programme to meet their nutrient demands. We found that as development proceeds, post-implantation epiblast-like cells downregulate protein digestion, increase expression of amino acid transporters and become dependent on soluble amino acids. |
