Osteogenic Differentiation from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells and the Role of Calreticulin

Calreticulin, an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident protein, is a calcium buffering chaperone. In this study, with an optimized differentiation protocol from mouse R1 ES cells, we demonstrate a novel role of calreticulin in osteogenic commitment and differentiation. To enhance the efficacy of the m...
