A characterization of cell lines that we derived from morulae (three lines), blastocysts (two lines), and the inner cell mass (ICM) is given. The karyotype of all the lines was normal; the genotype of four lines was XX, and four lines were genotypically XY. The pluripotencies and commitment status of the derived lines were estimated. First, there were not less than two-thirds of cells in the populations of the lines derived from morulae and the ICM with both Xs active; 70-100% of cells of the blastocyst-derived lines had one of the Xs in an inactive state. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) in the lines (genotype XX) derived from morulae and ICM was found to be twofold higher than in lines with genotype XY, and G6PD activity was the same in the blastocyst-derived XX lines and XY lines. Second, when injected intraperitoneally into athymic mice, morulae- and ICM-derived cells gave rise to simple and complex embryoid bodies (EB) resembling to typical "cystic" mouse EBs. Third, when injected subcutaneously to athymic mice, the ICM- or morula-derived cells gave rise to typical teratomas containing derivatives of the three germ layers and components of organogenesis. Comparisons of cell lines of different derivations demonstrated that the pluripotencies of the ES cells derived from morulae or the ICM are higher than those of blastocyst derivation.
