Single-cell transcriptome profiling during the in vitro differentiation of mouse ESCs (mESCs) into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs).

We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) during the in vitro transition of mouse ESCs (mESCs) from a naïve pluripotent state into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs), a primed pluripotent state. We derived pseudotime expression trajectories to investigate transcript dynamics of key metabolic regulators, with the aim to identify metabolic pathways that potentially impact on early embryonic cell state transitions. Overall design: Single-cell RNA-seq during the in vitro differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in 2i culture conditions (time point t=0h) into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) at time points t=24h and t=48h.
