Screening for novel regulators of embryonic stem cell identity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two recent studies, including one in this issue of Cell Stem Cell, have identified novel regulators of embryonic stem cell (ESC) self-renewal using genome-wide RNAi screens in mouse ESCs (Ding et al., 2009; Hu et al., 2009) and have further expanded the repertoire of factors that regulate ESC identity.

The effect of BMP4 on mouse embryonic stem cell proliferation and differentiation into primordial germ cells
Background and Aim: Artificial gamete production from stem cells is a novel strategy for treatment of infertility. Among various stem cell sources, embryonic stem cells (ESC) can be considered as an appropriate source for in vitro formation of germ cells. In this study we evaluated the effect of BMP4 on proliferation and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into primordial germ cells (...
متن کاملA Novel in vitro Co-culture Systems on Differentiation of Embryonic Stem Cells into Oocyte-like Cells in an in vivo Manner
Background:Differentiation of Embryonic Stem Cells into Oocyte-like cells in vitro is challenging. Successful derivation of oocyte from stem cells can provide an alternative source for curing ovogenesis problems. The current study aims to demonstrate a new protocol with two different types of media for differentiating embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into oocyte-like cells ...
متن کاملChromatin regulation landscape of embryonic stem cell identity.
ES cells (embryonic stem cells) derived from the ICM (inner cell mass) of blastocysts are pluripotent and are capable of giving rise to most cell types. The ES cell identity is mainly maintained by the Oct4 (octamer-binding transcription factor 4) and Nanog transcriptional networks. Recently, a tremendous amount of work has focused on deciphering how ES cell identity is regulated epigenetically...
متن کاملI-11: Dedifferentiation of Mouse Fibroblast Cells by Chemical Induction
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated by ectopic expression of four transcription factors have great promises for regenerative medicine in humans. Since the initial report of iPSCs by viral transfection, ample efforts have been made in the generation of iPSCs through nonviral approaches. Small molecules offer the advantages of low cost without genomic modification and have been used ...
متن کاملSimultaneous regulation of miR-451 and miR-191 led to erythroid fate decision of mouse embryonic stem cell
Objective(s): Various microRNAs (miRNAs) are expressed during development of mammalian cells, when they aid in modulating gene expression by mediating mRNA transcript cleavage and/or regulation of translation rate. miR-191 and miR-451 have been shown to be critical regulators of hematopoiesis and have important roles in the induction of erythroid fate decision. So, the aim of this study is inve...
