MicroRNAs Modulate Hematopoietic Lineage Differentiation

MicroRNAs modulate hematopoietic lineage differentiation.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an abundant class of approximately 22-nucleotide regulatory RNAs found in plants and animals. Some miRNAs of plants, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Drosophila play important gene-regulatory roles during development by pairing to target mRNAs to specify posttranscriptional repression of these messages. We identify three miRNAs that are specifically expressed in hematopoietic ...

MicroRNAs and hematopoietic differentiation.

The discovery of microRNAS (miRNAs) and of their mechanism of action has provided some very new clues on how gene expression is regulated. These studies established new concepts on how posttranscriptional control can fine-tune gene expression during differentiation and allowed the identification of new regulatory circuitries as well as factors involved therein. Because of the wealth of informat...

Functionally distinct hematopoietic stem cells modulate hematopoietic lineage potential during aging by a mechanism of clonal expansion.

Aging of the hematopoietic stem cell compartment is believed to contribute to the onset of a variety of age-dependent blood cell pathophysiologies. Mechanistic drivers of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) aging include DNA damage accumulation and induction of tumor suppressor pathways that combine to reduce the regenerative capacity of aged HSCs. Such mechanisms do not however account for the chang...

Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells into Hematopoietic Cells

Purpose: Differentiation of Mouse embryonicstem cells into Hematopoietic cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, we used EB formation system for Hematopoietic differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cell (Royan B1) in suspension culture. EBs cultured in medium with Hematopoietic inducer cytokines (SCF, TPO, GMCSF, IL3, Flt3 and EPO) .presence of hematopoietic differentiated cell assessed ...
