Long-term culture of hepatic progenitors derived from mouse Dlk+ hepatoblasts.
We previously demonstrated that hepatoblasts can be isolated from mouse fetal liver based on the expression of delta-like [corrected] (Dlk), also known as Pref-1. Each Dlk+ hepatoblast forms a colony containing both albumin+ hepatocytes and cytokeratin 19+ (CK19) cholangiocytic cells on either type IV collagen or laminin. Here we show that extracellular matrices (ECMs) significantly affect the ...
متن کاملLong-Term Culture of Self-renewing Pancreatic Progenitors Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Pluripotent stem cells have been proposed as an unlimited source of pancreatic β cells for studying and treating diabetes. However, the long, multi-step differentiation protocols used to generate functional β cells inevitably exhibit considerable variability, particularly when applied to pluripotent cells from diverse genetic backgrounds. We have developed culture conditions that support long-t...
متن کاملFinancing Long-term Care: The Role of Culture and Social Norms; Comment on “Financing Long-term Care: Lessons From Japan”
Based on the experiences of Japan and Germany, Ikegami argues that middle-income countries should introduce public long-term care insurance (LTCi) at an early stage, before benefits have expanded as a result of ad hoc policy decisions to win popular support. The experience of the Netherlands, however, shows that an early introduction of public LTCi may not prevent, but ...
متن کاملIsolation of hepatoblasts based on the expression of Dlk/Pref-1.
Hepatoblasts are common progenitors for hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells, although their nature remains largely unknown. In order to isolate and to characterize hepatoblasts, we searched for cell surface antigens expressed in mouse fetal hepatic cells by the signal sequence trap method and found that Dlk, also known as Pref-1, was strongly expressed in fetal liver. Immunohistochemical a...
متن کاملIsolation and long-term culture of neural stem cells from chondrostei fish Acipenser persicus
In the present study, an in vitro brain cell culture was developed from Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus). The tissues from anterior, middle and posterior regions of the brain were dissected, dispersed and cultivated separately in DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 15% fetal bovine serum, antibiotic and antimycotic. The medium was changed every 3 days. The cells became confluent after about ...
