2018-10-20

There has been controversy regarding whether subsets of premigratory neural crest IOX2 are predetermined to form distinct cell types or multipotent and capable of forming numerous derivatives. Recently, this has been elegantly put to rest by single cell lineage analysis using Confetti transgenic mi

calcitonin receptor EWS FLI a widely recognized fusion oncog

2018-10-20

EWS-FLI1, a widely recognized fusion oncogene for Ewing sarcomas, is generated by the chromosomal translocation of t(11;22) (q24;q12), which consists of the N-terminal transactivator domain of the EWS gene and the C-terminal ETS DNA binding domain of the FLI1 gene. The resulting EWS-FLI1 fusion prot

To address this issue, we examined striatal neurons innervated by nigral DA neurons using the plant lectin wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA). WGA can be efficiently transferred between neurons via synapses and has been already used as a transsynaptic tracer (Fabian and Coulter, 1985; Broadwell and Balin,

The experimental design of this model provides several differences to standard 2D culture: EHTs are anchored between two flexible silicone posts, which generate a preload, and EHTs perform auxotonic contractile work (the physiological form of cardiac contraction) against elastic posts. This results

Despite the dramatic changes in bone morphology in OsxCre;iDTR mutants, bone marrow cellularity was unaffected compared with their control littermates (Figure 3A). Red blood cell and platelet numbers were unchanged in the blood of the OsxCre;iDTR mutant, but there was a 50% decrease in the white blo

2018-10-20

Hippocalcin (HPCA) is a high-affinity calcium-binding protein restricted to the CNS and is most abundant in pyramidal cells of the hippocampus CA1 region (Kobayashi et al., 2012). During brain development HPCA expression increases sharply, concurrent with synapse formation (Saitoh et al., 1994). HPC

2018-10-20

Dedifferentiation has been considered as one of the mechanisms rerouting cell fate by reverting differentiated cells to an earlier, more primitive phenotype. Interestingly, previous studies from both our group and others have demonstrated that dedifferentiation is a prerequisite for bone marrow stro
