MicroRNA hsa-miR-135b Regulates Mineralization in Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Unrestricted Somatic Stem Cells
1 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs) have been recently identified in human umbilical cord blood and have been shown to differentiate into lineages representing all 3 germ layers. To characterize microRNAs that may regulate osteogenic differentiation of USSCs, we carried out expression analysis for 157 microRNAs using quantitative RT-PCR before and after osteogenic induction (t = 0.5, 24, 72, 168, 216 h)....
