OCT4 positively regulates Survivin expression to promote cancer cell proliferation and leads to poor prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: OCT4 and Survivin are important factors for cancer cell proliferation, renewal and dedifferentiation, and correlate with resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy in most human cancers, but their regulatory mechanisms are not well known ...

Differentiation of primate primordial germ cell-like cells following transplantation into the adult gonadal niche. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A major challenge in stem cell differentiation is the availability of bioassays to prove cell types generated in vitro are equivalent to cells in vivo. In the mouse, differentiation of primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) from pluripotent cells was ...

Bidirectional talk between AhR and Oct4

open access: yesOncotarget, 2015
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a member of the family of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors that is widely expressed in most differentiated mammalian cells and implicated in a variety of cellular processes, such as cell cycle progression, cell migration, carcinogenesis and immune functions. Upon the binding of its synthetic or natural

H3K4 Methyltransferase Set1a Is A Key Oct4 Coactivator Essential for Generation of Oct4 Positive Inner Cell Mass [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells, 2016
Abstract Limited core transcription factors and transcriptional cofactors have been shown to govern embryonic stem cell (ESC) transcriptional circuitry and pluripotency, but the molecular interactions between the core transcription factors and cofactors remains ill defined. Here, we analyzed the protein–protein interactions between Oct4,

Metabolic Imbalance Triggers Adaptive Remodeling to Accelerate Diploidization in Murine Haploid Embryonic Stem Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this article, Shuai and colleagues demonstrate that metabolic remodeling drives self‐diploidization in murine haploid ESCs (haESCs). Mitochondrial dysfunction and imbalanced pyruvate metabolism underlie this process. Genome‐wide screening using haESCs identifies key mitochondrial quality‐control related genes, enabling a metabolism‐based medium that

Disruption of OCT4 Ubiquitination Increases OCT4 Protein Stability and ASH2L-B-Mediated H3K4 Methylation Promoting Pluripotency Acquisition

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: The protein level of OCT4, a core pluripotency transcription factor, is vital for embryonic stem cell (ESC) maintenance, differentiation, and somatic cell reprogramming.

CD44ICD promotes breast cancer stemness via PFKFB4-mediated glucose metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
CD44 is a single-pass cell surface glycoprotein that is distinguished as the first molecule used to identify cancer stem cells in solid tumors based on its expression.

Copy number variations in healthy subjects. Case study: iPSC line CSSi005-A (3544) production from an individual with variation in 15q13.3 chromosome duplicating gene CHRNA7 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
CHRNA7, encoding the neuronal alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (a7nAChR), is highly expressed in the brain, particularly in the hippocampus. It is situated in the 15q13.3 chromosome region, frequently associated with a Copy Number Variation (CNV),

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

A simple and effective approach for the isolation and identification of germline stem cells in mature large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) and oogonial stem cells (OSCs) are important germline stem cells located in the gonads, responsible for maintaining fertility throughout the reproductive lifespan.
