Project description:This study compares cardiac induction time-courses using (i) wild-type hESCs subjected to a standard directed differentiation protocol, (ii) EOMES knockout hESCs subjected to the same protocol, and (iii) EOMES KO / TET-ON hESCs subjected to a TET-ON protocol.
Project description:A simultaneous stimulation of the Activin / FGF, BMP, and WNT pathways is required for promoting most efficient mesoderm induction in human embryonic stem cells, as well as for subsequent differentiation into cardiomyocytes. To reveal the contributions of three of these signaling pathways to mesoderm formation and cardiac induction, comparative differentiation time-courses were recorded, varying the combinations of signaling factors administered to the cells during the first day of differentiation: FGF (F) + BMP (B) + WNT (W) treatment during the first 24 hours, or FGF + BMP, or BMP + WNT, or FGF + WNT

Project description:This study compares directed cardiac differentiation time-courses using (i) HuES6 cells with endogenous ISL1 knockout + inducible ISL1 transgene, and (ii) wild-type HuES6 cells. For the first series, a subset of samples was left untreated (= ISL1 knockout scenario) while another subset received doxycycline treatment to upregulate ISL1 at days 3 and 4 of differentiation (ISL1 rescue). For the second series, a subset of samples was differentiated under default conditions (no RA) while another subset received retinoic acid (RA) on days 3 and 4 of differentiation, which leads to an atrial-like phenotype.
Project description:We report the comparative gene expression between embryonic stem cell derived cranial and spinal motor neurons and multiple time points after induction and primary cultured ocular and spinal motor neurons, using single cell RNA sequencing.
