There were reused panels in Fig. 3A, corresponding to the ‘MC3T3-E1’ samples for the DSPP, MMP-20, and MyoD panels as well as to the ‘KN-3’ sample for the MyoD panel. Image analysis of each panel showed the same pattern of low background noise. In Fig. 3B, there were reused panels in the same positions as in Fig. 3A. Differentiation of Human Skeletal Muscle Stem Cells into Odontoblasts Is Dependent on Induction of α1 Integrin ExpressionJournal of Biological ChemistryVol. 289Issue 20PreviewBackground: Human skeletal muscle stem cells (hSMSCs) can differentiate into bone and fat cells. Results: hSMSCs could also differentiate into odontoblasts but required an extracellular matrix scaffold and changes in their integrin profile. Conclusion: The present results identify an odontoblast differentiation pathway dependent on adhesion receptor expression. Significance: The data provide insight into how hSMSC adhesion receptors interact with the microenvironment to regulate lineage specification. Full-Text PDF Open Access
