摘要
Realizing the potential of stem cell biology requires the modulation of self-renewal and differentiation, both of which are incompletely understood. This chapter describes methods for the design, development, and implementation of cell-based screens of small molecules, genes and expressed proteins for modulation of stem and progenitor cell fate. These include the engineering of embryonic and other stem cells with gene promoter-reporter protein constructs and their application in automated screening. We discuss considerations of promoter reporter selection, assay development and implementation, and image acquisition, analysis, and data handling. Such black-box screens are useful for the identification of probes of developmental processes and should provide tools that will identify druggable targets for biochemical assays.
