In this regard, murine ESC derivatives bearing EGFP transcriptionally controlled via the promoter of the HCN4 gene were reported to coexpress EGFP, HCN4, and other cardiac markers in spontaneously beating foci (Morikawa et al., 2010). Yet, after the EGFP-positive fraction was subjected to cell sorti

There are three possible explanations for our findings. First, it is possible that the reprogramming process resulted in iPSCs that were solely derived from methylated FM fibroblasts and not of the unmethylated cells. This assumes that methylated FM fibroblasts were present in our culture, which acc

2018-10-20

Further support for the hierarchical two-stem-cell model came with the discovery of an additional reserve ISC marker locus, Hopx, encoding an atypical homeodomain protein with functions in early heart development (Chen et al., 2002). An IRES-CreERT2 cassette inserted into the endogenous Hopx locus r

2018-10-20

During embryonic development, retinoic hedgehog pathway (RA) acts as a morphogen, providing signals that instruct commitment of unspecified precursors toward separate cell fates, thereby helping to mediate tissue patterning and organogenesis (Duester, 2008; Kumar and Duester, 2011; Ross et al., 200

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics is a powerful approach for the comparative analysis of protein verbascoside between cell populations. Global approaches have been used to define the MSC proteome (Delorme et al., 2008; Mareddy et al., 2009; Mindaye et al., 2013a, 2013b) and to track the change

Here, we report for the first time that the mouse eye possesses a primitive c-Kit+ cell that is self-renewing, clonogenic and multipotent, the three critical identifiers of tissue specific stem/progenitor topotecan (Weissman, 2000). In addition, lineage tracing techniques in vivo demonstrate that t

Here, we describe the characteristics of a novel SeVdp-iPS vector (SeVdp(KOSM)302L) containing miR-302a target sequences at the 3′-UTR of the L gene. This vector can be used for the efficient reprogramming of MEFs into transgene-free iPSCs without the aid of siRNAs, observed using human embryonic fi

Beyond the established role of OH D in VDR

2018-10-20

Beyond the established role of 1,25(OH)D3 in VDR signaling, the biological function of vitamin D precursors in mediating non-VDR dependent events remains controversial. Mutations in 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase are associated with Hh defects in mammals (Koide et al., 2006). Cell culture studies de

2018-10-20

Small or immature teratomas are particularly hard to detect due to the lack of tissues with high secretion levels such as gland-like structures. In line with that, we found one teratoma in our test set for which none of the eight tested biomarkers was positive. Histological characterization showed t

There are multiple ways whereby oxidative stress may promote FOXO activation. For example, FOXO proteins can directly sense ROS through the ability of ROS to induce disulfide bridges between cysteine residues on the FOXO protein, resulting in FOXO activation and transcription of ROS-removal BIRB796

Others have reported both B and T cell effects after osteolineage cell deletion (Ding and Morrison, 2013) but the promoter used in some of those studies, Col1(2.3), extends through many cell stages of osteolineage progression. Here we define that these osteolineage cell states provide distinctive fu
