Inhibitory effects of ginsenosides on basic fibroblast growth factor-induced melanocyte proliferation

Journal of Ginseng Research, 2017
Background: UV-B-exposed keratinocytes secrete various paracrine factors. Among these factors, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) stimulates the proliferation of melanocytes. Ginsenosides, the major active compounds of ginseng, are known to have broad

Microporous Microgel Assemblies Facilitating the Recruitment and Osteogenic Differentiation of Progenitor Cells for Bone Regeneration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
There is a significant need for biomaterials with well‐defined stability and bioactivity to support tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a tunable microgel platform that enables the decoupling of stiffness from porosity, thereby promoting bone regeneration.

Active Hypothermic Growth: A Novel Means For Increasing Total Interferon-γ Production by Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells [PDF]

, 2006
When grown under hypothermic conditions, Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells become growth arrested in the G₀/G₁ phase of the cell cycle and also often exhibit increased recombinant protein production.

Analysis of Oct4-dependent transcriptional networks regulating self-renewal and pluripotency in human embryonic stem cells [PDF]

, 2006
The POU domain transcription factor OCT4 is a key regulator of pluripotency in the early mammalian embryo and is highly expressed in the inner cell mass of the blastocyst. Consistent with its essential role in maintaining pluripotency, Oct4 expression is

Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling in hereditary and neoplastic disease: biologic and clinical implications. [PDF]

, 2015
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) are transmembrane growth factor receptors with wide tissue distribution. FGF/FGFR signaling is involved in neoplastic behavior and also development, differentiation, growth, and survival.
