The tissue also expressed molecular markers characteristic of normal cartilage.
Dr. Verfaillie proposed the same two explanations, saying her cells had some of the markers characteristic of embryonic stem cells but lacked others.
Undifferentiated cultures of human PLA cells expressed markers characteristic of neural cells such as neuron-specific enolase (NSE), vimentin, and neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN).
hESCd-MSC had surface markers characteristic of MSC, with positive alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining when cultured in osteogenic medium.
Recently, fusion of T cells with T-lymphoma cells has been described, leading to the establishment of lines carrying markers characteristic of the normal T-cell partner5 7, and some lines with T-cell activities have been reported8,9.
iPSC-RPE on fibrin gels remained viable, generated monolayers with characteristic cobblestone appearance and dark pigmentation, and expressed mRNA and protein markers characteristic of RPE in the eye.
RGC-5 cells are transformed cells that express several surface markers characteristic of neuronal precursor cells, but resemble glial cells morphologically and divide in culture.
Taken together that quiescent PSCs seeded onto stiffer matrices were observed to lose lipid-storing capacity, express the canonical markers characteristic of PSC activation, and increase proliferation & ECM protein production, these observations indicate that substrate stiffness can, per se, induce phenotypic transition of PSCs to a matrix-secreting active state.
The differentiated stem cells expressed markers characteristic of renal proximal tubular cells and their precursors, whereas markers of other renal cell types were not expressed or expressed at low levels.
When cultivated on 300 g/mol PEG substrates at day 19, chondrocytes had lost intracellular markers characteristic of the differentiated phenotype, including type II collagen and protein kinase C (PKC).
Monocytes cultured with GM-CSF and IL-4 for 4 days exhibit markers characteristic of iDC and maintain the expression of both formyl peptide receptors FPR and FPRL1, as well as CCR5.
