Epigenetic Induction of Definitive and Pancreatic Endoderm Cell Fate in Human Fibroblasts by Rangarajan Sambathkumar, Eric Kalo, Rob Van Rossom, Marijke M. Faas, Paul de Vos, Catherine M. Verfaillie

“…We demonstrated that histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) Trichostatin A (TSA) combined with a chromatin remodeling medium (CRM) induced expression of a number of definitive endoderm and early and late pancreatic marker genes. When CRM was omitted, endoderm/pancreatic marker genes were not induced. …”

A simple and reliable method for claustrum localization across age in mice by Tarek Shaker, Gwyneth J. Dagpa, Vanessa Cattaud, Brian A. Marriott, Mariam Sultan, Mohammed Almokdad, Jesse Jackson

“…To reliably identify claustrum projection cells in mice, we propose a simple immunolabelling method that juxtaposes the expression pattern of claustrum-enriched and cortical-enriched markers. We determined that claustrum cells immunoreactive for the claustrum-enriched markers Nurr1 and Nr2f2 are devoid of the cortical marker Tle4, which allowed us to differentiate the claustrum from adjoining cortical cells. …”
