Journal ArticleDOI

A transcription factor response element for gene expression during circadian night

TL;DR: The role of the Rev-ErbA/ROR response element in gene expression during circadian night is demonstrated, which is in phase with Bmal1 and in antiphase to Per2 oscillations.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Abrupt Shift in the Day/Night Cycle Causes Desynchrony in the Mammalian Circadian Center

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an abrupt shift in the light/dark (LD) cycle disrupts the synchronous oscillation of circadian components in the rat SCN and dissociation and slow resynchronization of endogenous oscillators within the SCN after an LD cycle shift suggests a mechanism for the physiological symptoms that constitute jet lag.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular communications in bone homeostasis and repair

TL;DR: The role of cell–cell communication in bone remodeling is discussed and osteoblasts differentiate to osteocytes in bone or to bone lining cells on bone surfaces, which regenerated as new bone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholesteryl group- and acryloyl group-bearing pullulan nanogel to deliver BMP2 and FGF18 for bone tissue engineering

TL;DR: It is indicated that the CHPOA/hydrogel system can successfully deliver two different proteins to the bone defect to induce effective bone repair and might be a step towards efficient bone tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of multipotent stem cells from adult rat periodontal ligament by neurosphere-forming culture system.

TL;DR: Data indicate that PDL-derived spheres contained multipotent adult stem cells capable of differentiating into both neural and mesodermal progeny.
