The results showed that, when applied, a long - term inhibition of Rho - kinase signaling increased the expressions of chondrocyte - specific genes and differentiation markers in human chondrosarcoma 2/8 cells.

Not exact matches

A short - term inhibition of Rho - kinase failed to induce extracellular matrix production in fibroblasts or in HCS - 2 / 8 cells, while its long - term exposure increased the expressions of chondrocyte - specific genes and differentiation markers, and also promoted the synthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans by chondrocytic cells.

While expression levels of all marker genes remained almost unchanged in wild - type ACVR1 cultures compared with the empty viral vector, the expression profile induced by caACVR1 Q207D displayed evidence of advanced chondrogenic differentiation as shown by decreased levels of the early differentiation stage marker collagen type II together with enhanced expression of the later - stage markers Ihh and collagen type X. Indian hedgehog has been shown previously to be induced by BMP signaling transmitted via the ACVR1 receptor (9).

MyoD is normally only expressed in skeletal muscle, and it was later found to be a transcription factor involved in the differentiation of muscle cells and also a very early marker of muscle cell fate commitment.

The Intestinal Epithelial Cell Differentiation Marker ALPi is Selectively Induced by HDAC Inhibitors in Colon Cancer Cells in a KLF5 - dependent Manner.

Interestingly, cells from both iPS cell lines expressed early cardiac differentiation markers and transcription factors, implicating that there could be a lack in functional cardiomyocyte maturation in line 4.1.

For definitive endoderm differentiation, spontaneously formed EBs on day 6 were plated onto matrigel - coated dishes and maintained in a low concentration of fetal bovine serum (FBS) in combination with a high concentration of recombinant Activin A. Scale - like cells appeared (Figure 5A), which were positive for definitive endoderm markers such as Foxa2, Sox17 and Gata4.

The early cardiac markers and transcription factors (Gata4, Mef2c, Hind I, Nkx2 - 5 and beta - Mhc) were examined in iPS cell lines 11.1 and 4.1 during the cardiac differentiation process (differentiation day 0, day 3, day 6 and day 9).

«The observed increase in the ratio of cytotoxic CD4 T cells to CD4 helper T cells indicates that they are an important component of the protective immune response to viral infections and that their induction should be an important marker for successful vaccinations against certain viral diseases,» says postdoctoral researcher and first author Veena Patil, Ph.D. «But we really didn't know enough about their molecular profile and the mechanisms that drive their differentiation and maintenance.»

In addition, the expression of other germ cell markers, such as NANOS and PIWIL1 genes, was also up - regulated as the EB differentiation progressed.

Among the early germ cell markers examined, VASA is a candidate gene for detecting pre-meiotic germ cell differentiation from monkey ES cells, because its expression is detected earlier in the primordial stage of germ cell development in comparison to that of PIWI family genes in vivo in mice and humans [11], [36]--[38], [49].

Genetic studies using samples along the distribution range of both subspecies and based on a few dozen nuclear markers have revealed loci of relatively high divergence (0.3 — 1.2 %) between subspecies embedded in a genome otherwise characterized by low levels of differentiation and high levels of bidirectional gene flow [21], [24]--[26], likely facilitated by high effective population sizes, high dispersal, and a relatively short generation time [21], [24]--[26].

However, these germ cell marker genes are not appropriate for detecting germ cell differentiation from mouse and human ES cells because these genes are expressed in both ES cells and germ cells.

To explore the differentiation markers for detecting germ cells differentiated from ES cells, the expression of various germ cell marker genes was examined in tissues and ES cells of the cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis).

No significant differences in genetic diversity were observed among populations by microsatellite markers with HE ranging from 0.597 to 0.612 and low, but significant, genetic differentiation among populations (FST = 0.019, P = 0.001).

Here, we used a marker - free approach to computationally reconstruct the blood lineage tree in zebrafish and order cells along their differentiation trajectory, based on their global transcriptional differences.

In order to better understand how the scientists have come to this conclusion, one needs to get familiar with cell differentiation markers.
