Substrate Stiffness Modulates TGF-β1-Induced Lineage Specification in Multipotent Vascular Stem Cells

Cells
Multipotent vascular stem cells (MVSCs) are found in the vascular wall and surrounding tissues and possess the ability to differentiate into mesenchymal lineages.

Concrete substrate moisture requirements for durable concrete repairs – a field study [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2022
In concrete repair specifications, the required moisture condition of the substrate, which can play an important role for bond development, and, ultimately, on the long-term repair / overlay durability, is generally ill-defined and addressed without due ...

Intrinsic Cause–Effect Power: The Tradeoff Between Differentiation and Specification [PDF]

Entropy
Integrated information theory (IIT) starts from the existence of consciousness and characterizes its essential properties: every experience is intrinsic, specific, unitary, definite, and structured.

Design of a Vitronectin-Based Recombinant Protein as a Defined Substrate for Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells into Hepatocyte-Like Cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Maintenance and differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) usually requires culture on a substrate for cell adhesion. A commonly used substratum is Matrigel purified from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm sarcoma cells, and consists of a complex mixture

Multiomics Analyses of HNF4α Protein Domain Function during Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Differentiation

iScience, 2019
Summary: During mammalian development, liver differentiation is driven by signals that converge on multiple transcription factor networks. The hepatocyte nuclear factor signaling network is known to be essential for hepatocyte specification and ...

The miR‐193a‐3p‐MAP3k3 Signaling Axis Regulates Substrate Topography‐Induced Osteogenesis of Bone Marrow Stem Cells

Advanced Science, 2020
Substrate topographical features induce osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. As microRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in osteogenesis and bone regeneration, it would be meaningful to ...
