TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ES cells can differentiate to hemopoietic cells through the proximal lateral mesoderm, merely upon culturing in type IV collagen-coated dishes, and implicates Flk1+VE-cadherin+ cells as a diverging point of hemopOietic and endothelial cell lineages.
Abstract: Totipotent murine ES cells have an enormous potential for the study of cell specification. Here we demonstrate that ES cells can differentiate to hemopoietic cells through the proximal lateral mesoderm, merely upon culturing in type IV collagen-coated dishes. Separation of the Flk1+ mesoderm from other cell lineages was critical for hemopoietic cell differentiation, whereas formation of the embryoid body was not. Since the two-dimensionally spreading cells can be monitored easily in real time, this culture system will greatly facilitate the study of the mechanisms involved in the cell specification to mesoderm, endothelial, and hemopoietic cells. In the culture of ES cells, however, lineages and stages of differentiating cells can only be defined by their own characteristics. We showed that a combination of monoclonal antibodies against E-cadherin, Flk1/KDR, PDGF receptor(alpha), VE-cadherin, CD45 and Ter119 was sufficient to define most intermediate stages during differentiation of ES cells to blood cells. Using this culture system and surface markers, we determined the following order for blood cell differentiation: ES cell (E-cadherin+Flk1-PDGFRalpha-), proximal lateral mesoderm (E-cadherin-Flk1+VE-cadherin-), progenitor with hemoangiogenic potential (Flk1+VE-cadherin+CD45-), hemopoietic progenitor (CD45+c-Kit+) and mature blood cells (c-Kit-CD45+ or Ter119+), though direct differentiation of blood cells from the Flk1+VE-cadherin- stage cannot be ruled out. Not only the VE-cadherin+CD45- population generated from ES cells but also those directly sorted from the yolk sac of 9.5 dpc embryos have a potential to give rise to hemopoietic cells. Progenitors with hemoangiogenic potential were identified in both the Flk1+VE-cadherin- and Flk1+VE-cadherin+ populations by the single cell deposition experiment. This line of evidence implicates Flk1+VE-cadherin+ cells as a diverging point of hemopoietic and endothelial cell lineages.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Jagged constitutes an instructive signal for Th2 differentiation, which is independent of IL4/STAT6, and induced by APC is abrogated in T cells lacking the Notch effector RBPJkappa.

TL;DR: The nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA for preproenkephalin from bovine adrenal medulla indicates that the precursor protein contains four copies of Met-enke PHalin, a previously undetected opioid peptide.
Abstract: The nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA for preproenkephalin from bovine adrenal medulla indicates that the precursor protein contains four copies of Met-enkephalin and one copy each of Leu-enkephalin, Met-enkephalin-Arg6 -Phe7 and Met-enkephalin-Arg6 -Gly7 -Leu8, a previously undetected opioid peptide. The enkephalin and extended enkephalin sequences are each bounded by paired basic amino acid residues. Preproenkephalin may represent a multi-hormone precursor, like the corticotropin-β-lipotropin precursor.

TL;DR: This study evaluated the teratoma-forming propensity of secondary neurospheres generated from 36 mouse induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell lines derived in 11 different ways, which correlated with the persistence of undifferentiated cells.
Abstract: We evaluated the teratoma-forming propensity of secondary neurospheres (SNS) generated from 36 mouse induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell lines derived in 11 different ways. Teratoma-formation of SNS from embryonic fibroblast-derived iPS cells was similar to that of SNS from embryonic stem (ES) cells. In contrast, SNS from iPS cells derived from different adult tissues varied substantially in their teratoma-forming propensity, which correlated with the persistence of undifferentiated cells.

TL;DR: A new class of bifunctional catalysts bearing a thiourea moiety and an amino group on a chiral scaffold bearing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene and dimethylamino groups was revealed to be highly efficient for the asymmetric Michael reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to nitroolefins.
Abstract: We synthesized a new class of bifunctional catalysts bearing a thiourea moiety and an amino group on a chiral scaffold. Among them, thiourea 1e bearing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene and dimethylamino groups was revealed to be highly efficient for the asymmetric Michael reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to nitroolefins. Furthermore, we have developed a new synthetic route for (R)-(-)-baclofen and a chiral quaternary carbon center with high enantioselectivity by Michael reaction. In these reactions, we assumed that a thiourea moiety and an amino group of the catalyst activates a nitroolefin and a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound, respectively, to afford the Michael adduct with high enantio- and diastereoselectivity.
