Open AccessDnmt1/Tet2-mediated changes in Cmip methylation regulate the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by controlling the Gbp2-Pparγ-CD36 axis
Dynamic alteration of DNA methylation leads to various human diseases, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Although C-Maf-inducing protein (Cmip) has been reported to be associated with NAFLD, ...

Open AccessADAMTS-1: a novel target gene of an estrogen-induced transcription factor, EGR1, critical for embryo implantation in the mouse uterus
Recently, we demonstrated that estrogen (E2) induces early growth response 1 (Egr1) to mediate its actions on the uterine epithelium by controlling progesterone receptor signaling for successful embryo implantati...

Open AccessSecretory phospholipase A2-X (Pla2g10) is a novel progesterone receptor target gene exclusively induced in uterine luminal epithelium for uterine receptivity in mice
Aberration of estrogen (E2) and/or progesterone (P4) signaling pathways affects expression of their target genes, which may lead to failure of embryo implantation and following pregnancy. Although many target gen...

Electroporation of AsCpf1/RNP at the Zygote Stage is an Efficient Genome Editing Method to Generate Knock-Out Mice Deficient in Leukemia Inhibitory Factor
CRISPR/Cpf1 is a class II, type V RNA-guided endonuclease that is distinct from the type II CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease, widely used for genome editing. Cpf1 is a smaller and simpler endonuclease than Cas9, overcomin...

PCL/β-TCP Composite Scaffolds Exhibit Positive Osteogenic Differentiation with Mechanical Stimulation
We investigated the use of Polycaprolactone (PCL)/ β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) composites with applied mechanical stimulation as scaffold for bone tissue engineering. PCL-based three-dimensional (3D) struct...

Open AccessEffects of mechanical stimulation on the reprogramming of somatic cells into human-induced pluripotent stem cells
Mechanical stimuli play important roles in the proliferation and differentiation of adult stem cells. However, few studies on their effects on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been published.

물리적 인장 자극에 의한 줄기세포의 분화에 동반되는 미토콘드리아의 특성 변화에 관한 고찰
Recent studies have confirmed that the direction of stem cell differentiation can be modulated by physical stimuli even without biochemical growth factors. This implies stem cells attribute their differentiati...

Effects of various patterns of intermittent hydrostatic pressure on the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
This study investigated the effects of intemittent hydrostatic pressure (IHP) patterns on the responses of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) such as osteogenic differentiation, proliferation and senescence. For th...

Characterization of a hybrid bone substitute composed of polylactic acid tetrapod chips and hydroxyapatite powder
This study evaluated a novel bone substitute composed of biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) chips and hydroxyapatite (HA) powder. Using a microinjection molding technique, we manufactured tetrapod-shaped PLA ...
