It has been well established that leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is essential for maintaining naïve pluripotency of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the IL-6 family of ...

Adults of L. striatellus were collected from Beijing, Baoding, Kaifeng, Huai’an, Changsha, Kunming, and Sanya of China from January to April in 2017 (Supplementary Table S1). After insects were ...

Protein-protein interactions are fundamental mechanisms for relaying signal transduction in most cellular processes; therefore, identification of novel protein-protein interaction pairs and monitoring ...

Tetraploid complementation, through which an entire organism is produced from pluripotent donor cells, is taken as the most stringent test for pluripotency. However, it remains unclear whether ...

MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) is an adenomatous polyposis transmitted in an autosomal-recessive pattern, involving biallelic inactivation of the MUTYH gene. Loss of a functional MUTYH protein will ...

Formation of heart valves requires early endocardial to mesenchymal transformation (EMT) to generate valve mesenchyme and subsequent endocardial cell proliferation to elongate valve leaflets. Nfatc1 ...
