Figure 1 Schematic representations of human germline development revealed by in vivo and in vitro approaches. hEGC = human embryonic germ cell; hESC = human embryonic stem cell; PGC = primordial germ cell.

Figure 2 Schematic representations of possible strategies of in vitro disease modeling using hESCs/iPSCs. ESC = embryonic stem cell; hESC = human embryonic stem cell; iPSC = induced pluripotent stem cell; PGC = primordial germ cell; POF = premature ovarian failure; POI = primary ovarian insufficiency.
