Journal ArticleDOI
Bone marrow cells adopt the phenotype of other cells by spontaneous cell fusion
Naohiro Terada,Takashi Hamazaki,Masahiro Oka,Masanori Hoki,Diana M. Mastalerz,Yuka Nakano,Edwin M. Meyer,Laurence Morel,Bryon E. Petersen,Edward W. Scott +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mouse bone marrow cells can fuse spontaneously with embryonic stem cells in culture in vitro that contains interleukin-3, which, without detailed genetic analysis, might be interpreted as ‘dedifferentiation’ or transdifferentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
CD9 Is Associated with Leukemia Inhibitory Factor-mediated Maintenance of Embryonic Stem Cells
Masahiro Oka,Kenichi Tagoku,Thomas L. Russell,Yuka Nakano,Takashi Hamazaki,Edwin M. Meyer,Takashi Yokota,Naohiro Terada +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that CD9 may play a role in LIF-mediated maintenance of undifferentiated ES cells, indicating the LIF/STAT3 pathway is critical for maintaining CD9 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presynaptic dopaminergic properties of differentiated mouse embryonic stem cells.
Yuka Nakano,Aaron C. Hirko,Anthony Smith,Masahiro Oka,Ralph Dawson,Joanna Peris,Naohiro Terada,Edwin M. Meyer +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that differentiated ES cells have the presynaptic functions for maintaining dopaminergic homeostasis, which may be essential for their long-term use in restoring CNS levels of this transmitter.
