View SamplesActivation of telomerase often endows cancer cells, but rarely normal somatic cells, with immortality. Especially, fetal lung fibroblasts are known to be hardly immortalized by TERT overexpression. We here established an immortal non-transformed lung fibroblast cell line only by TERT transfection, as well as an immortal transformed cell line by transfection of TERT and SV40 early antigens. Comparing the expression profiles of these cell lines with those of mortal cell strains with elongated lifespan after TERT transfection, 51 genes, including 19 upregulated and 32 downregulated, were explored to be the candidates responsible for regulation of cellular proliferation of lung fibroblasts. These included the genes previously reported to be involved in cellular proliferation, transformation, or self-renewal capacity, and those highly expressed in lung tissues obtained from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or hypersensitivity pneumonitis. This set of lung fibrobrast cell lines/strains of identical genetic background with different proliferative capacity, mortal and immortal non-transformed fibroblasts may become useful model cells for research on lung fibroblast growth regulation and the candidate genes explored in this study may provide promising biomarkers or molecular targets of pulmonary fibrosis.

View SamplesScreening for genes regulated by Etv2 within Flk-1+/PDGFRa+ ES derived mesoderm.Microarray analysis performed to screen for the candidate genes regulated by Etv2. TT2 ES cells differentiated on OP9 feeder cells were sorted using Flk-1 and PDGFRa antibodies.Gene expressions from these two populations were compared.

View SamplesDeregulated retinal angiogenesis directly cause vision loss in many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity. To identify endothelial-specific genes expressed in angiogenic retinal vessels, we purified genetically labeled endothelial cells from Tie2-GFP transgenic mice and performed gene expression profiling using DNA microarray. To find out genes associated with angiogenesis, comparisons of microarray data were carried out between GFP-negative non-endothelial retinal cells and GFP-positive retinal endothelial cells in angiogenic P8 retina.

View SamplesCD34+ fraction of cord blood (CB) cells can be reprogrammed on pronectinF-coated dish in serum free medium using Sendai virus (SeV) vector carrying reprogramming factors OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC. human ES cell-like colonies came to merge around 18 days after SeV infection on pronectin-coated dish in human ES cell medium supplemented with bFGF under normoxic culture (20% O2). After passages, dish like-shape colonies were seeded on pronectinF-coated 96 well-plate in a single cell and cultured in N2B27 based medium supplemented with LIF, FK, MAPKi, GSKi in hypoxic culture condition (5% O2) for cloning purpose. Emerged dome shape colonies were collected and cultured in human ES cell medium supplemented with bFGF under normoxic culture (20% O2) again. Dish shape and human ES cell-like colonies derived from single cell were picked up for further appraisal of reprogrammed cells such as expression of pluriotencyrelated molecules. Reprogrammed cells can be maintained for more than 20 passages without differentiation.
