Dax1(also known as Nr0b1) is regarded as an important component of the transcription factor network in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the role and the molecular mechanism of Dax1 in the maintenance of different pluripotency states are poorly understood. Here, we constructed a stable Dax1 knockout (KO) cell line using the CRISPR/Cas9 system to analyze the precise function of Dax1. We reported that 2i/LIF-ESCs had significantly lower Dax1 expression than LIF/serum-ESCs. Dax1KO ES cell lines could be established in 2i/LIF and their pluripotency was confirmed. In contrast, Dax1-null ESCs could not be continuously passaged in LIF/serum due to severe differentiation and apoptosis. In LIF/serum, the activities of the Core module and Myc module were significantly reduced, while the PRC2 module was activated after Dax1KO. The expression of most proapoptotic genes and lineage-commitment genes were drastically increased, while the downregulated expression of antiapoptotic genes and many pluripotency genes was observed. Our research on the pluripotent state-dependent role of Dax1 provides clues to understand the molecular regulation mechanism at different stages of early embryonic development.

The active role of biomaterials in the regeneration of tissues and their ability to modulate the behavior of stem cells in terms of their differentiation is highly advantageous. Here, polypyrrole, as a representantive of electro-conducting materials, is found to modulate the behavior of embryonic stem cells. Concretely, the aqueous extracts of polypyrrole induce neurogenesis within embryonic bodies formed from embryonic stem cells. This finding ledto an effort to determine the physiological cascade which is responsible for this effect. The polypyrrole modulates signaling pathways of Akt and ERK kinase through their phosphorylation. These effects are related to the presence of low-molecular-weight compounds present in aqueous polypyrrole extracts, determined by mass spectroscopy. The results show that consequences related to the modulation of stem cell differentiation must also be taken into account when polypyrrole is considered as a biomaterial.

We have disrupted one allele of the N-myc locus in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells by using homologous recombination techniques and have obtained germ line transmission of null N-myc ES cell lines with transmission of the null N-myc allele to the offspring. The creation of mice with a deficient N-myc allele will allow the generation of offspring bearing null N-myc alleles in both chromosomes and permit study of the role that this proto-oncogene plays in embryonic development.
