To evaluate the prognostic value of OCT4 expression and vasculogenic mimicry (VM) in human breast cancer, we examined OCT4 expression and VM formation using immunohistochemistry and CD31/PAS (periodic acid-schiff) double staining on 90 breast cancer specimens. All patients were followed up for five-149 months following surgery. Survival curves were generated using Kaplan-Meier method. Multivari...
Octamer-binding protein 4 (OCT4) is a key player in pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells and is essential for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells. Recently, several reports indicated the spontaneous recovery of pluripotency in cultured adult human testis-derived cells. This was evidenced also by the detection of OCT4 using antibodies. However, the soundness of some data was recent...
The transcription factor Oct4 is required in vitro for establishment and maintenance of embryonic stem cells and for reprogramming somatic cells to pluripotency. In vivo, it prevents the ectopic differentiation of early embryos into trophoblast. Here, we further explore the role of Oct4 in blastocyst formation and specification of epiblast versus primitive endoderm lineages using conditional ge...
The POU-V transcription factor Oct4 is a master regulator of self-renewal and pluripotency in embryonic stem (ES) cells as well as an important regulator of lineage commitment in embryonic development. We have shown that Oct4’s ability to regulate selfrenewal in ES cells is related to a conserved function in regulating embryonic differentiation in certain vertebrates. During Xenopus laevis deve...
Here we investigate the expression of OCT4 human lung adenocarcinoma and bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) tumor biopsies and tumor-derived primary cell cultures. OCT4 has been detected in several human tumors suggesting a potentially critical role in tumorigenesis. We assessed the presence of OCT4 in clinical tumor samples of both adenocarcinoma and BAC at the cellular and transcriptional lev...
The POU domain transcription factor Oct4 plays critical roles in self-renewal and pluripotency of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Together with Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc, Oct4 can reprogram any other cell types to pluripotency, in which Oct4 is the only factor that cannot be functionally replaced by other POU family members. To investigate the determinant elements of Oct4 uniqueness, we performed Ala s...
Stem cell research can lead to the development of treatments for a wide range of ailments including diabetes, heart disease, aging, neurodegenerative diseases, spinal cord injury, and cancer. OCT4 is a master regulator of self-renewal of undifferentiated embryonic stem cells. OCT4 also plays a crucial role in reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Given known ...
The POU-V transcription factor Oct4 is a master regulator of self-renewal and pluripotency in embryonic stem (ES) cells as well as an important regulator of lineage commitment in embryonic development. We have shown that Oct4’s ability to regulate selfrenewal in ES cells is related to a conserved function in regulating embryonic differentiation in certain vertebrates. During Xenopus laevis deve...
We examined whether suppression of Oct4 via RNA interference (RNAi) would affect embryonic stem (ES) cell lineage choice. Cells were transfected with plasmids containing an independently expressed reporter gene and an RNA polymerase type III promoter to constitutively express small stem-loop RNA transcripts corresponding to Oct4 mRNA. Cells transfected with Oct4 RNAi constructs demonstrated red...
BACKGROUND Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a common cancer with poor prognosis. It has been hypothesized that Oct4 positive radioresistant stem cells may be responsible for tumor recurrence. Hence, we evaluated Oct4 expression in ESCC in pre-treatment, post neo-adjuvant residual and post-surgical recurrent tumours. MATERIALS AND METHODS Endoscopic mucosal biopsies were used to st...
