Immunocytochemistry. Cells were fixed at room temperature with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10min. Non-specific proteins were blocked by ultra V block (Thermo). The cells were then treated with primary ampa overnight at 4°C. Primary antibodies were against TRA-1-60 (1:500, MA1-023, Thermo Fisher), OCT4

Our results are in line with previous findings showing that cellular senescence negatively correlates with reprogramming efficiency (Banito et al., 2009; Mali et al., 2008; Qin et al., 2007; Zhao and Daley, 2008; Zhao et al., 2008). The expression of p21 is controlled by p53 during the replicative

Progression of maladaptive LV remodeling, increased wall stress and transition to heart failure are associated with an enhanced cardiac production of natriuretic peptides (Hohl et al. 2013; van Veldhuisen et al. 2013). TAC led to a marked five- to twenty-fold increase of myocardial BNP and ANP expre

Background green fluorescence was detected in the lentiviral reprogrammed MML-6838-CL2 iPSC line and a control episomal (non-GFP) reprogrammed iPSC, indicating silencing (Fig. 1B). Pluripotency was confirmed by detecting expression of SOX2, OCT4, SSEA4, TRA1-61 and TRA1-80 pluripotency-associated ma

The in vitro conditions for RA-induced FP induction required high concentrations of RA, pointing possibly to an epiphenomenon that jump starts a self-enhancing activator/inhibitor signaling system, leading to localized FP formation.

A key element of the culture conditions is the balanced combination of growth factors and signaling molecules (e.g., EGF, bFGF, IGF, insulin, transferrin, and Rock inhibitor), which apparently generates an artificial androgen-independent PESC microenvironment that promotes the self-renewal and maint

Our study shows that iPSCs are highly proficient in antioxidant defense, which is presumably responsible for the low frequency of oxidative DNA lesions in both the mitochondrial and nuclear genome. Notably, previous non-quantitative proteomic studies revealed an abundant expression of antioxidant en

Unlike the LMW FGF2 isoform, which is well-studied, the HMW isoforms of FGF2 are not nearly as well-understood, but recent reports have investigated the effects of HMW FGF2 signaling in various contexts. Localization of FGF2 isoforms can vary depending on cellular conditions and stimuli (Arese et al

As was shown in this study, along with many other previous studies, TALEN and double-nicking CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing techniques are significantly accurate, with only a negligible risk of random gene disruption, in the drug-selected clones. This result indicates that disrupting a particular gene w
