Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of lymphohematopoietic cells from embryonic stem cells in culture
TL;DR: An efficient system was developed that induced the differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells into blood cells of erythroid, myeloid, and B cell lineages by coculture with the stromal cell line OP9, which will facilitate the study of molecular mechanisms involved in development and differentiation of hematopoietic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Can Substitute for Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor in the Support of Osteoclastic Bone Resorption
Shumpei Niida,Masato Kaku,Hitoshi Amano,Hisahiro Yoshida,Hiroshi Kataoka,Satomi Nishikawa,Kazuo Tanne,Norihiko Maeda,Shin-Ichi Nishikawa,Hiroaki Kodama +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that M-CSF and VEGF have overlapping functions in the support of osteoclastic bone resorption in op/op mice with a deficiency in osteoclasts resulting from a mutation in M- CSF gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Congenital osteoclast deficiency in osteopetrotic (op/op) mice is cured by injections of macrophage colony-stimulating factor
Hiroaki Kodama,Akira Yamasaki,Makoto Nose,Shumpei Niida,Yasuhisa Ohgame,Moriaki Abe,Masayoshi Kumegawa,Toshio Suda +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that M-CSF is one of the factors responsible for the differentiation of osteoclasts and monocyte/macrophages under physiological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Essential role of macrophage colony-stimulating factor in the osteoclast differentiation supported by stromal cells.
TL;DR: Results indicate that both contact with stromal cells and M-CSF are requisite for osteoclast differentiation under physiological conditions.
Journal Article
Involvement of the c-kit receptor in the adhesion of hematopoietic stem cells to stromal cells.
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that the c-kit receptor plays an important role not only in the proliferative response of hematopoietic stem cells but also in their adhesion to stromal cells.
