Alternative Splicing in the Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells into Cardiac Precursors
2009
PLoS Computational Biology
The role of alternative splicing in self-renewal, pluripotency and tissue lineage specification of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) is largely unknown. ...
These included an enrichment of splice isoforms that oppose cell-cycle arrest in hESCs and that promote calcium signaling and cardiac development in cardiac precursors. ...
In loving memory of Karen Vranizan and Milo Salomonis.

Alternative splicing: An important mechanism in stem cell biology
2015
World Journal of Stem Cells
It has been shown that AS is prevalent in metazoan genomes, and the splicing pattern is dynamically regulated in different tissues and cell types, including embryonic stem cells. ...
However, most of the studies focused on the expression of a core set of transcription factors and regulatory RNAs. The role of AS in stem cell differentiation was not clear. ...
Pervasive splicing in embryonic stem cells Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are pluripotent cells which can self-renew and has the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers [59, 60] . ...
