Reprogramming capacity of Nanog is functionally conserved in vertebrates and resides in a unique homeodomain.
Specimen part
View SamplesNanog null neural stem (NS) cells were reprogrammed to naive pluripotency in 2i/LIF conditions with mouse (m) Nanog and human (h) Nanog. Global gene expression in resulting iPS cells was compared to embryonic stem (ES) cells and nanog null NS cells.
Reprogramming capacity of Nanog is functionally conserved in vertebrates and resides in a unique homeodomain.

View SamplesBreast cancer (BRC) is the most invasive cancer in women. Although the survival rate of BRC is gradually increasing due to improved screening systems, development of novel therapeutic targets for inhibition of BRC proliferation, metastasis and recurrence have been constantly needed. Thus, in this study, we identified overexpression of SETDB1, a histone methyltransferase, in RNA-seq data of BRC derived from TCGA portal. In Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, cell migration-related GO terms were enriched, and we confirmed down-regulation of cell migration/invasion and alteration of EMT /MET markers after knockdown of SETDB1. Moreover, gene network analysis showed that SMAD7 expression is regulated by SETDB1 levels, indicating that up-regulation of SMAD7 by SETDB1 knockdown inhibited BRC metastasis. Therefore, development of SETDB1 inhibitors and functional studies may help develop more effective clinical guidelines for BRC treatment

Parkinson's disease induced pluripotent stem cells with triplication of the α-synuclein locus.
Specimen part
View SamplesA major barrier to research on Parkinsons disease (PD) is inaccessibility of diseased tissue for study. One solution is to derive induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from patients with PD and differentiate them into neurons affected by disease. We created an iPSC model of PD caused by triplication of SNCA encoding -synuclein. -Synuclein dysfunction is common to all forms of PD, and SNCA triplication leads to fully penetrant familial PD with accelerated pathogenesis. After differentiation of iPSCs into neurons enriched for midbrain dopaminergic subtypes, those from the patient contain double -synuclein protein compared to those from an unaffected relative, precisely recapitulating the cause of PD in these individuals. A measurable biomarker makes this model ideal for drug screening for compounds that reduce levels of -synuclein, and for mechanistic experiments to study PD pathogenesis.

View SamplesXEN cells are derived from the primitive endoderm of mouse blastocysts. In culture and in chimeras they exhibit properties of parietal endoderm. However, BMP signaling promotes XEN cells to form an epithelium and differentiate into visceral endoderm (VE). Of the several different subtypes of VE described, BMP induces a subtype that is most similar to the VE adjacent to the trophoblast-derived extraembryonic ectoderm.
BMP signaling induces visceral endoderm differentiation of XEN cells and parietal endoderm.
