Transcriptome of early embryonic invasion at implantation sites in a murine model
2015
Successful implantation relies on the interaction between a competent embryo and a receptive endometrium. The aim of the present study was to investigate genes differentially expressed in early invasive embryonic tissue versus decidual tissue in mice. Samples were obtained from the ectoplacental cone, the immediately surrounding deciduas and from deciduas from interimplantation sites. Microarray analysis showed that 817 genes were differentially expressed between extra-embryonic tissue and the surrounding decidua and that 360 genes were differentially expressed between the different deciduas, with a high representation of developmental processes. Genes differentially expressed in the matern…
Gene expression of stem cells at different stages of ontological human development.
2013
Abstract Objectives To compare multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) obtained from chorionic villi (CV), amniotic fluid (AF) and placenta, with regard to their phenotype and gene expression, in order to understand if MSCs derived from different extra-embryonic tissues, at different stages of human ontological development, present distinct stemness characteristics. Study design MSCs obtained from 30 samples of CV, 30 of AF and 10 placentas (obtained from elective caesarean sections) were compared. MSCs at second confluence cultures were characterized by immunophenotypic analysis with flow cytometry using FACS CANTO II. The expression of the genes Oct-4 (Octamer-binding transcription fact…
Serpent and a hibris reporter are co-expressed in migrating cells during Drosophila hematopoiesis and Malpighian tubule formation
2006
Motile mesodermal cells contribute several cell types to developing embryos. In Drosophila, blood cell precursors or prohemocytes, are first detected in the procephalic mesoderm by the expression of the GATA transcription factor Serpent. Once specified, a subset of prohemocytes migrate posteriorly to populate most of the embryo and further differentiate as plasmatocytes. Similarly, Drosophila nephrogenesis involves integration of posterior mesodermal cells into the Malpighian tubule primordia where these cells differentiate as stellate cells. Here we investigated the possibility that the immunoglobulin-domain protein Hibris and the GATA factor Serpent were co-expressed in motile mesodermal …
