Rodent stem cell-derived and primary myocytes, however, transitioned to the adult TnI profile.
"Indeed, tributyltin has been shown to affect human mesenchymal stem cells in the same manner as rodent stem cells used here".
In contrast to rodent stem cells, HNPCs have the potential to be used as a future allogeneic cell replacement therapy in humans.
LPA effects on neuronal differentiation are strikingly different in neural progenitors derived from human and rodent sources, and similarly, the cytokine LIF and the growth factor bFGF are known to have different effects in human and rodent stem cells (see Discussion section).
Although the sensitivity toward inorganic Hg was similar in human compared with mouse spheres (Cedrola et al. 2003), rodent stem cells treated for 7 days were more sensitive toward organic Hg than were human cultures treated for 2 days (Tamm et al. 2006).
First established in rodents, spermatogonial stem cell transplantation has now been used in other mammalian species and enabled tremendous progress investigating the phenotypic and functional characteristics of this fundamental testicular stem cell.
Such differences may be a result of miscomparison, as hESCs are now believed to be more similar to rodent epiblast stem cells than to rodent ESCs [ 7].
Together, we are trying to turn rodent embryonic stem cells into neurons and then transplant them into a rat or mouse.
In a separate part of the trial, researchers bathed rodent neural stem cells (NSCs) in different concentrations of aromatic-tumerone extract.
PRIME-XV Neural Basal Medium is a chemically defined medium that supports long-term cultures of human and rodent neuronal stem cells for neurological research.
Moreover, the cells obtained from SSCs strongly expressed OV6, an antigen specific for rodent hepatic stem cells [ 19, 20].
