Isolation of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial progenitor cells from sac-like structures
40 views | Nov 27 2019
Aoki H et al. improved regenerative medicine and facilitate basic studies on the endothelial lineage. [Read the Full Post]
Generation of pig induced pluripotent stem cells using an extended pluripotent stem cell culture system
46 views | Nov 27 2019
Xu J et al. demonstrated that stable iPS cells could be generated in LCDM medium, which could give rise to both embryonic and extraembryonic cells in vivo. However, the efficiency and level of chimeric contribution of pig LCDM-iPS cells were found low. [Read the Full Post]
CHIR-99021 regulates mitochondrial remodelling via β-catenin signalling and miRNA expression during endodermal differentiation
46 views | Nov 05 2019
Ma Y et al. demonstrated that CHIR-99021 plays a role in mitochondrial structure and function remodelling via activation of the β-catenin signalling pathway and inhibits the expression of miRNAs during definitive endodermal differentiation. [Read the Full Post]
Conversion of Terminally Committed Hepatocytes to Culturable Bipotent Progenitor Cells with Regenerative Capacity
102 views | Aug 03 2019
Katsuda T et al. reported that a cocktail of small molecules, Y-27632, A-83-01, and CHIR99021, can convert rat and mouse MHs in vitro into proliferative bipotent cells, which we term chemically induced liver progenitors (CLiPs). CLiPs can differentiate into both MHs and biliary epithelial cells that can form functional ductal structures. CLiPs in long-term culture did not lose their proliferative capacity or their hepatic differentiation ability, and rat CLiPs were shown to extensively repopulate chronically injured liver tissue. Thus, our study advances the goals of liver regenerative medicine. [Read the Full Post]
Cytotoxicity and activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway in mouse embryonic stem cells treated with four GSK3 inhibitors
0 views | Jul 18 2019
Naujok O et al. indicated that out of the four tested GSK3 inhibitors, only CHIR-99021 and CHIR-98014 proved to be potent pharmacological activators of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. But only in the case of CHIR-99021 high potency was combined with very low toxicity. [Read the Full Post]
White light emitting diode induces autophagy in hippocampal neuron cells through GSK-3-mediated GR and RORα pathways
204 views | Apr 03 2019
Yang Y et al. demonstrated that GSK-3-mediated GR/RORα signaling pathway is involved in white LED light-induced autophagy in hippocampal neuron cells. [Read the Full Post]
Ionizing Radiation Blocks Hair Cell Regeneration in Zebrafish Lateral Line Neuromasts by Preventing Wnt Signaling
276 views | Feb 15 2019
Li R et al. suggested that radiation suppressed hair cell regeneration in zebrafish lateral line neuromasts through inhibition of Wnt signaling in supporting cells possibly by secreting anti-proliferation factors like dkk2. Maintaining a healthy supporting cell pool is vital for regeneration of hair cells. [Read the Full Post]
Molecular regulation of apoptotic machinery and lipid metabolism by mTORC1/mTORC2 dual inhibitors in preclinical models of HER2+/PIK3CAmut breast cancer
275 views | Jan 30 2019
Qian J et al. found that the basal levels of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A and lipid catabolism were elevated in HER2+/PIK3CAmut breast cells and were inhibited upon mTOR-KI treatment. [Read the Full Post]
Integrated High Throughput Analysis Identifies GSK3 as a Crucial Determinant of p53-Mediated Apoptosis in Lung Cancer Cells
310 views | Dec 03 2018
Zhang Y et al. provided us with new insights regarding the mechanism by which p53 mediates A549 apoptosis and may cast light on the development of more efficient p53-based strategies for treating lung cancer. [Read the Full Post]
Novel role of STRAP in progression and metastasis of colorectal cancer through Wnt/β-catenin signaling
0 views | Oct 06 2018
Yuan G et al. suggest that STRAP increases invasion and metastasis of CRC partly through inhibiting ubiquitin-dependent degradation of β-catenin and promoting Wnt/β-catenin signaling. [Read the Full Post]
