This allowed us to use the same cell strain as the control and the experimental cell populations.
"They tend not to use credit cards; they tend not to use the same cell phone for very long; they tend not to establish or maintain creditworthiness; they tend to pay cash, to move around a bit, etc.
That type of compatibility should hasten the time when a person will be able to use the same cell phone anywhere in the world.
However, this similarity needs to be confirmed with further experiments that use the same cell types in both species.
None has yet said they have successfully reprogrammed cells, but most have not used the same cells Obokata used.
Researchers need these for a number of reasons, such as having positive controls for assays, or to be sure they're using the same cells as another investigator whose work they want to replicate or expand upon.
As a control we used the same cells complemented with the wild type gene (Fig 1A).
Since the secreted luciferase assay is non-destructive, we used the same cells to correlate the expression status of the miR-122 guide strand detected by Northern hybridization.
Genes without pseudogenes were classified for chromosomes, and the log ratio of the average of two experiments using the same cells was determined for each chromosome.
Interestingly, a clear increased of IL-6 and IL-8 by S. suis was reported in the literature using the same cells [ 13].
