Acute and transient MF activation

2018-10-20

Acute and transient MF activation is part of the body’s normal wound healing program, but persistent MFs contribute to fibrosis by excessively producing and contracting collagenous extracellular matrix (ECM) into stiff scar tissue (Hinz et al., 2012). In turn, the stiffness of mature scar promotes m

2018-10-20

In vitro, we demonstrated that the DMR can drive luciferase expression in three different cell lines (293T,COS-7, and HepG2) and markedly enhances reporter gene activity (10- to 15-fold increase) compared with basal activity obtained with either the SIX5 promoter, the entire region that surrounds th

2018-10-20

Because Q3SA and Q3SC represent an isogenic pair of iPSC lines from the same individual but with contrasting ATM genotypes (ATM−/− versus ATM+/−, respectively), we examined gene expression differences using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), evaluating matches at the transcript level. Relatively few mRNAs we

The impairment of cardiac differentiation resulting from Cited2 depletion at the onset of ESC differentiation may be due to a consequent downregulation of Brachyury and Mesp1 expression. The decrease of Isl1, Nkx2.5, Gata4, and Tbx5 expression that we observed in Cited2-depleted cells at D5 of diffe
