We developed two human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)/human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-specific glycan-recognizing mouse antibodies, R-10G and R-17F, using the Tic (JCRB1331) hiPSC line as an antigen. R-10G recognizes a low-sulfate keratan sulfate,

Complex polarity: building multicellular tissues through apical membrane traffic [PDF]
The formation of distinct subdomains of the cell surface is crucial for multicellular organism development. The most striking example of this is apical-basal polarization.

PcMab-47: Novel Antihuman Podocalyxin Monoclonal Antibody for Immunohistochemistry [PDF]
Podocalyxin (PODXL) is a CD34-related sialomucin and a well-known marker of embryonic stem cells. PODXL is expressed in many types of tumors including colorectal cancers, breast cancers, and brain tumors. Overexpression of PODXL is an independent predictor of progression, metastasis, and poor outcome.

Development of 'Redox Arrays' for identifying novel glutathionylated proteins in the secretome [PDF]
Proteomics techniques for analysing the redox status of individual proteins in complex mixtures tend to identify the same proteins due to their high abundance.

Counting glomeruli in human kidney specimens using ex vivo MRI without contrast agents. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose The total number of glomeruli is an important indicator of kidney function and susceptibility to disease. Glomeruli, however, are difficult to image using MRI without contrast enhancement. For this reason, previous studies have used cationic ferritin as a contrast agent to detect glomeruli in ex vivo and in vivo perfused kidneys.

Podocalyxin inhibits human embryo implantation in vitro and luminal podocalyxin in putative receptive endometrium is associated with implantation failure in fertility treatment [PDF]
To study whether endometrial epithelial podocalyxin (PCX) inhibits implantation of human embryos in vitro and in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF).We have recently identified PCX as a key negative regulator of endometrial epithelial receptivity.

Epithelial organization and cyst lumen expansion require efficient Sec13-Sec31-driven secretion [PDF]
Epithelial morphogenesis is directed by interactions with the underlying extracellular matrix. Secretion of collagen and other matrix components requires efficient coat complex II (COPII) vesicle formation at the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we show that

Atypical focal segmental glomerulosclerosis associated with a new PODXL nonsense variant
Background Podocalyxin (PODXL) is a highly sialylated adhesion glycoprotein that plays an important role in podocyte's physiology. Recently, missense and nonsense dominant variants in the PODXL gene have been associated with focal segmental ...
