The Bag KO mESC line

2018-10-20

The Bag1KO-mESC line maintains a classical dome-shaped ES cell morphology and expressed high levels of ES-associated protein such as, alkaline phosphatase (Fig. 1D). Immunofluorescent staining for the three key pluripotent stem cell markers Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog revealed that the Bag1KO-mESC line was

Conclusion The number of colonies at the first isolation step could only represent a more or less rich ECFC content of the donor but we demonstrated that the initial clonogenicity was also related to distinctive intrinsic stemness, proliferative and functional features. Moreover, our results enab

2018-10-20

Importantly, expression of α-SMA is not simply a marker for MF activation, but also the driver of cell function and fate. Increased expression of α-SMA directly reduces the clonal potential of hMSCs and guides their differentiation toward osteoblasts. Hence, α-SMA not only identifies osteoprogenitor

Experimental Procedures Author Contributions Acknowledgments Introduction Mouse embryonic stem mdm2 p53 (mESCs) are cells derived from inner cell mass (ICM) that self-renew indefinitely in culture and can give rise to all somatic cell types both in vitro and in vivo (Evans and Kaufman, 1

Our gene chip analysis also revealed a robust upregulation of metallothionein (MT) family members that are involved in metal metabolism and detoxification, as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging. Overexpression of MT has been shown to protect mice from streptozotocin (STZ)-induced β cel

2018-10-20

The Gata2 +9.5 site regulates a large gene cohort in hemogenic endothelium, and these genes do not parse into a single pathway (Gao et al., 2013). The genes include Runx1, Lyl1, and Mpl, positive mediators of HSC generation and/or function. The identification of vital constituents of the +9.5-depend

The CD and CD alleles

2018-10-20

The CD45.1 and CD45.2 ceramide differ by only five amino acids within the extracellular domain (Zebedee et al., 1991), resulting in epitope changes that permit specific recognition by monoclonal antibodies (Shen, 1981). The majority of the commonly used mouse strains express the CD45.2 allele. Back

Results Discussion Expansion of the NP population is thought to have contributed to the dramatic increase in the surface area of the neocortex (or neocorticalization) observed in higher mammals (Kriegstein et al., 2006; Rakic, 2009; Sun and Hevner, 2014). Thus, maintenance of the NP pool size an

The neurodevelopmental process is orchestrated by a series of intrinsic mechanisms and extrinsic cues. Among these, intrinsic epigenetic regulation plays an important role in neural progenitor fate specification and provides one explanation about the complexity of developmental processes. DNA methyl
