Summary of in vivo chimera studies with rhesus monkey ESCs and embryos

Tested cells	Host embryo stage	Total offspring generated	Developed to separate embryo	Developed to embryo proper chimera
ORMES-22	Blastocyst	4	No	No
ORMES-23	Blastocyst	2	No	No
CRES-2 GFP	Blastocyst	1	No	No
Whole ICM	Blastocyst	3	Yes	Restricted^a (hematopoietic)
4-cell embryo	4-cell embryo	10	No	Yes
ORMES-22 GFP	4-cell embryo	1	No	No

Chimerism was restricted to livers, spleens and placentas.

ORMES-22 (XX) and -23 (XY) are IVF-derived rhesus monkey embryonic stem cell lines. CRES-2 (XY) is SCNT-derived ESC line(Byrne et al., 2007)
