Lineage Tracing of Cardiac Explant Derived Cells
AIMS Cultured cardiac explants produce a heterogeneous population of cells including a distinctive population of refractile cells described here as small round cardiac explant derived cells (EDCs). The aim of this study was to explore the source, morphology and cardiogenic potential of EDCs. METHODS Transgenic MLC2v-Cre/ZEG, and actin-eGFP mice were used for lineage-tracing of EDCs in vitro a...
متن کاملIn vitro proliferation of cells derived from adult human beta-cells revealed by cell-lineage tracing.
OBJECTIVE Expansion of insulin-producing beta-cells from adult human islets could alleviate donor shortage for cell-replacement therapy of diabetes. A major obstacle to development of effective expansion protocols is the rapid loss of beta-cell markers in the cultured cells. Here, we report a genetic cell-lineage tracing approach for following the fate of cultured beta-cells. RESEARCH DESIGN ...
متن کاملDose-dependency and reversibility of radiation-induced injury in cardiac explant-derived cells of mice
We evaluated the dose-dependency and reversibility of radiation-induced injury in cardiac explant-derived cells (CDCs), a mixed cell population grown from heart tissues. Adult C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 0, 10, 50 and 250 mGy γ-rays for 7 days and atrial tissues were collected for experiments 24 hours after last exposure. The number of CDCs was significantly decreased by daily exposure to over...
متن کاملLineage Tracing
Lineage tracing is the identification of all progeny of a single cell. Although its origins date back to developmental biology of invertebrates in the 19(th) century, lineage tracing is now an essential tool for studying stem cell properties in adult mammalian tissues. Lineage tracing provides a powerful means of understanding tissue development, homeostasis, and disease, especially when it is ...
متن کاملIsolation of human explant derived cardiac stem cells from cryopreserved heart tissue
The value of preserving high quality bio specimens for fundamental research is significant as linking cellular and molecular changes to clinical and epidemiological data has fueled many recent advances in medicine. Unfortunately, storage of traditional biospecimens is limited to fixed samples or isolated genetic material. Here, we report the effect of cryopreservation of routine myocardial biop...
