The acoel Isodiametra pulchra has neoblasts that are potent stem cells crucial for tissue homeostasis, development and regeneration, and is a new model organism for studying development in this primitive bilaterian phylum.
The antiproliferative effects of vitamin D on a breast tumour cell line persist despite knockdown of the vitamin D receptor gene, and variants resistant to these anti-proliferative effects do not show changes in known vitamin D signaling pathway genes.
Retinoic acid enhances skeletal myogenesis in stem cells by activating mesodermal and muscle progenitor genes and beta-catenin, and inhibits cardiomyogenesis by downregulating BMP4 signaling.
