  • These cells are located beneath the basal lamina of myofiber in a dormant state. (elifesciences.org)
  • Activation of IL-4/IL-13 signaling promotes proliferation of FAPs to support myogenesis while inhibiting their differentiation into adipocytes. (scienceexhibitions.org)
  • Loss of PRDM16 from brown fat precursors causes a loss of brown fat characteristics and promotes muscle differentiation. (bioseek.eu)
  • The cell membrane is really a viscous fluid-like matter which includes several lipids, cholesterol, and inserted proteins. (globaltechbiz.com)
  • In the next reporting period we will re-confirm that the levels of candidate proteins from the 500 antibody array actually are very highly produced by hESCs and that the signals from these proteins are perceived by regenerating muscle cells. (ca.gov)
  • In this regard, his lab has identified a novel family of hematopoietic cell surface proteins, called the CD34 family, and shown that these are essential for a number of developmentally important processes. (ubc.ca)
  • Furthermore, GSOs protected cells against GLU-induced apoptosis by reducing the expression of the mitochondrial apoptosis-associated Bcl-2 family effector proteins and protected cells from GLU-induced oxidative damage by increasing the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 and HO-1 expression.

  • a reverse function mutant Talniflumate of Nkx3.2 blocks the ability of Sox9 to both inhibit myogenesis and induce chondrogenesis suggesting that Nkx3.2 is required for Sox9 to promote chondrogenic differentiation in satellite cells. (healthyguide.info)
  • We hypothesize that ovarian cancer cells will induce human ovarian TVM expression. (nih.gov)
  • Quantifying the exact expression levels of the mRNA isoforms encoding these myogenic transcription factors is therefore key to understanding how MuSCs switch between cell states. (biomed.news)
  • We demonstrate that mdPCR can give exact molecule counts per cell for mRNA isoforms encoding the myogenic transcription factor Pax3. (biomed.news)
  • Concomitantly, the level of transcription from major satellite decreases. (sciencegate.app)
  • Alternatively activated M2 macrophages comprise cells exposed to low concentrations of M-CSF in the presence of IL-4, IL-13, or IL-10. (hindawi.com)
  • Here we have investigated biophysical regulation of cell function. (5dok.org)
  • Despite this, clinical responses are typically transient as tumour cells develop resistance. (babraham.ac.uk)
  • The manipulation of fat stores is an obvious therapeutic dream, but disruption of the normal differentiation or development of white adipose tissues (WAT) causes ectopic lipid storage and severe pathology (lipodystrophy) in both humans and experimental animals. (bioseek.eu)
  • An in silico cell-to-cell interaction analysis highlights the CXCL9/CXCL10-CXCR3 axis and the CD70-CD27 axis as potential therapeutic targets. (pklab.org)
  • To address this question, single-cell RNA sequencing was applied to TBLCs and cells from early mouse embryonic developmental stages and the data were integrated using canonical correlation analyses. (sciencegate.app)
