Using carbon tracing and functional experiments, Kafkia, Pladevall-Morera, et al. show that TCA cycle rewiring underlies mouse embryo implantation and the exit from naive pluripotency. In this context...

Renal function can be replaced by bioengineered kidney tissue. This Review discusses in vivo kidney engineering, xenotransplantation, blastocyst complementation and stem-cell-derived kidney tissue engineering as approaches for renal replacement therapy.

Metabolism has emerged as a key regulator of stem cell differentiation and their epigenomes. This coupling is particularly evident during the exit from naive pluripotency in vitro. However, our unders...
