Via Activation of Oct4
We have a variety of stem cell, progenitor and neuron markers that are often referenced in publication. There represent a qualitative way to determine the state of stem cells as they differentiate.
Here're researchers take Fibroblasts and differentiate them into various progenitors. They were able to further differentiate these progenitors into astrocytes and neurons by: For neuronal differentiation, after 2 days of incubation with 20 nM reversine, cells were then treated with 0.5 μM all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) in serum-free DMEM/F-12 medium supplemented with the ITS for 2 days and switched into serum-free medium in the absence of RA with replacement of the medium every 2-3 days.
Our NSE and GFAP were used to confirm this differentiation.

The fibroblasts differentiation can be a great example for me. Thanks for the information about stem cells.
That's convincing. I'll recommend my client with your blog and related products.-BOC Sciences
