Open AccessPrognostic value of OCT4A and SPP1C transcript variant co-expression in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma
Octamer-binding transcription factor 4A (OCT4A) is essential for cell pluripotency and reprogramming both in humans and mice. To date, however, the function of human OCT4 in somatic and/or tumour tissues is la...

Multipotentiality of Iris Pigment Epithelial Cells in Vertebrate Eye
The discovery of adult stem cells indicated a previously unrecognized degree of plasticity in stem cell function (1-3). Recent extensive studies have suggested that mammalian stem cells residing in one tissue may...

Induction of photoreceptor-specific phenotypes in adult mammalian iris tissue
We show that iris tissue in the adult rat eye, which is embryonically related to the neural retina, can generate cells expressing differentiated neuronal antigens. In addition, the Crx gene transfer induced the s...

The kinetics of induction of Hox1.6 and c-jun mRNA during three different ways of inducing differentiation in teratocarcinoma F9 cells
Changes in Hox1.6 and c-jun gene expression were examined upon F9 cell differentiation that was induced by three independent methods: a drug treatment with retinoic acid (RA), that with sodium butyrate (NaB), ...
