In proof-of-principle experiments, we examined the response of hESC-derived CMs to verapamil and isoproterenol, two drugs commonly used in cardiovascular research. Single CMs exhibited a significantly reduced calcium transient amplitude associated with a negative inotropic response to treatment with

Here, we screened eight cardiogenic compounds and found that a combination of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 2, FGF10, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), termed FFV, greatly improved the quality of cardiac reprogramming in mouse fibroblasts under serum-free conditions. FFV treatment acti

Raman microspectroscopy is a marker-free method that can be used to characterize single cells based on a pattern of molecular vibrational modes, which reflects the composition of intracellular proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and cyp450 inhibitors (Puppels et al., 1990). Notingher et al. (2004) inv

cotransport Gpr or T cell death associated gene

2018-10-20

Gpr65, or T cell death-associated gene 8 (Tdag8), is a proton/acid-activated GPCR (Choi et al., 1996; Wang et al., 2004). Whereas GPR65 had not been linked to HSPC transitions, it was reported to be a pro-apoptotic factor in glucocorticoid-induced lymphocyte apoptosis (Malone et al., 2004) and to re

In this study, we further show that irak inhibitor of SUV39H1 in HSC is controlled by the highly conserved miR-125 miRNA family. While previously shown to be important regulators of HSC self-renewal and differentiation potential (O\'Connell et al., 2010; Ooi et al., 2010), the contribution of miR-1

These data suggest that niches are not limited to the governance of stem cells (Wu et al., 2009; Yu et al., 2015a), and the definition of “progenitor niches” may offer new ways to understand the regulation of tissue composition and function. We recently demonstrated that selective deletion of cells

Among the repertoire of integrins

2018-10-20

Among the repertoire of integrins, the β1-integrin subunit mediates the attachment of hESCs to fibronectin via the α5β1 heterodimer (Baxter et al., 2009), as well as other commonly used ECM (Braam et al., 2008). Although hESCs cultured on ECM have been shown to express active FAK and AKT (Miyazaki e
