Expression of BMP-2,4 Genes during Early Development in Xenopus (1995)

Toshiyuki Yamagishi, Shin-ichiro Nishimatsu, Shintaro Nomura, Makoto Asashima, Kazuo Murakami, Naoto Ueno

The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family has been implicated in the regulation of cell differentiation during early development. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are thought to play...

Oct-3/4 Maintains the Proliferative Embryonic Stem Cell State via Specific Binding to a Variant Octamer Sequence in the Regulatory Region of the UTF1 Locus

Nishimoto, Masazumi, Miyagi, Satoru, Yamagishi, Toshiyuki, Sakaguchi, Takehisa, Niwa, Hitoshi, Muramatsu, Masami, ...

The POU transcription factor Oct-3/4 has been shown to be critical for maintaining embryonic stem (ES) cell character. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its function remain elusive. We...

Heart Myofibrillogenesis Occurs in Isolated Chick Posterior Blastoderm: A Culture Model

Matsui, Hiroko, Sakabe, Masahide, Sakata, Hirokazu, Nakatani, Kazuki, Ikeda, Kazuo, Fukui, Mitsuru, ...

Early cardiogenesis including myofibrillogenesis is a critical event during development. ­Recently we showed that prospective cardiomyocytes reside in the posterior lateral blastoderm in the chick...

Extracellular Fibrillar Structure of Latent TGFβ Binding Protein-1: Role in TGFβ-dependent Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transformation during Endocardial Cushion Tissue Formation in Mouse Embryonic Heart

Nakajima, Yuji, Miyazono, Kohei, Kato, Mitsuyasu, Takase, Masao, Yamagishi, Toshiyuki, Nakamura, Hiroaki

Transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) is a dimeric peptide growth factor which regulates cellular differentiation and proliferation during development. Most cells secrete TGFβ as a large latent...

Highly efficient transient gene expression and gene targeting in primate embryonic stem cells with helper-dependent adenoviral vectors

Suzuki, Keiichiro, Mitsui, Kaoru, Aizawa, Emi, Hasegawa, Kouichi, Kawase, Eihachiro, Yamagishi, Toshiyuki, ...

Human embryonic stem (hES) cells are regarded as a potentially unlimited source of cellular materials for regenerative medicine. For biological studies and clinical applications using primate ES...
