Research Abstract |
Transfection of GPR56 siRNA significantly inhibited neural diffrentiation of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells). However, the transfection of GPR56 siRNA did not affect fibronectin-binding activity in mouse neural progenitor cells. Stimulation with either beta-adrenoceptor or serotonin receptor significantly enhanced neural differentiation of mouse iPS cells, but the stimulation did not affect fibronectin-binding activity in mouse neural progenitor cells. These findings suggest the involvement of GPR56, beta-adrenoceptor, and serotonin receptor on neural differentiation.
