Foxa2 identifies a cardiac progenitor population with ventricular differentiation potential
The recent identification of progenitor populations that contribute to the developing heart in a distinct spatial and temporal manner has fundamentally improved our understanding of cardiac development. However, the mechanisms that direct atrial versus ventricular specification remain largely unknown. Here we report the identification of a progenitor population that gives rise primarily to card...
متن کاملIdentification of a Proximal Progenitor Population from Murine Fetal Lungs with Clonogenic and Multilineage Differentiation Potential
Lung development-associated diseases are major causes of morbidity and lethality in preterm infants and children. Access to the lung progenitor/stem cell populations controlling pulmonary development during embryogenesis and early postnatal years is essential to understand the molecular basis of such diseases. Using a Nkx2-1(mCherry) reporter mouse, we have identified and captured Nkx2-1-expres...
متن کاملINHIBITION OF WNT3A DIMINISHED ANGIOGENIC DIFFERENTIATION CAPACITY OF RAT CARDIAC PROGENITOR CELLS
Background & Aims: Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of human mortality in industrialized and developing societies. Limited restorative ability of of cardiomyocytes after ischemic changes can causes extensive damage lead to prominent chronic heart failure. At present, the application of certain drugs is touted as one of the main available approaches to inhibit the spread of the lesion an...

متن کاملEndogenous retinoic acid regulates cardiac progenitor differentiation.
Retinoic acid (RA) has several established functions during cardiac development, including actions in the fetal epicardium required for myocardial growth. An open question is if retinoid effects are limited to growth factor stimulation pathway(s) or if additional actions on uncommitted progenitor/stem populations might drive cardiac differentiation. Here we report the dual effects of RA deficie...
