Early Induction of Hes1 by Bone Morphogenetic Protein 9 Plays a Regulatory Role in Osteoblastic Differentiation of a Mesenchymal Stem Cell Line

Researchers investigated the functional roles of early induction of Hes1 by bone morphogenic protein 9 (BMP9) in a mouse mesenchymal stem cell line, ST2. Hes1 mRNA was transiently and periodically induced by BMP9 in ST2.
