1 16433046 Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and soluble c-kit ligand (sKL) are cytokines involved in embryogenesis.
2 17460896 The cells expressed CD29, CD44, and CD166, but did not express CD11a, CD14, CD34, CD45, CD90, CD105, and CD117.
3 17235568 We studied beta cell regeneration by analyzing the immunocytochemical expression of the transcription factors, PDX-1, PBX-1, and MEIS2, and that of the potential precursor cell markers, c-Kit and nestin, using the model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes in rats.
4 17235568 PDX-1 expression, but not that of MEIS2 and PBX-1, transiently increased on day 7. c-Kit expression was found to be upregulated in islet cells at all points in time, while nestin expression was lacking.
5 21493893 Flow cytometry analyses of these cultured cells at passage 4 showed expression of typical MSC markers such as CD44 and CD29, but not hematopoietic markers such as c-kit, flk1, and CD34.
