It has been reported that LPC-like coelenterazine were established from hESCs/hiPSCs (Takayama et al., 2013; Yanagida et al., 2013; Zhao et al., 2009), and these cells were shown to proliferate and differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells or cholangiocyte-like cells. These LPCs were either isolated

Results Discussion Following transplantation into immunodeficient mice, immature hESC-derived pancreatic progenitor LJI308 develop over a lengthy maturation period into glucose-responsive, insulin secreting cells (Rezania et al., 2012; Bruin et al., 2013), although this process remains poorly

2018-10-20

Another developmental regulator, Hedgehog (Hh), acts as a morphogen in many developing tissues. Visceral endoderm is instructive to the development of endothelial and hematopoietic cotransporter through Hh signaling early in mouse gastrulation (Belaoussoff et al., 1998; Dyer et al., 2001). Hh prote

It is known that α-synuclein is degraded in part by the autophagic/lysosomal pathway (Cuervo et al., 2004). We observed no differences for the intracellular α-synuclein levels in dopaminergic cultures derived from three patients carrying the GBA-N370S mutation, which is in line with the report of Sc

Results Discussion In this study we have shown that activating BRAF mutations leading to increased RAS/MAPK pathway signaling induce a hypertrophic phenotype in hiPSC-derived CMs. While BRAF-mutant CMs display intrinsic defects in Ca2+ handling, several aspects of their phenotype require parac
