Accumulation of amino-polyvinyl alcohol-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles in bone marrow: implications for local stromal cells

First, it will be investigated if amino-polyvinyl alcohol-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (A-PVA-SPIONs) are suitable for MRI contrast enhancement in bone marrow. Second, the impact of A-PVA-SPION exposure in vivo on the viability and key ...

Deciphering Metabolic Regulation of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Fate

Mukul Girotra

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are responsible for life-long production of all mature blood cells. This unique characteristic makes them an ideal candidate for cell-based therapies to treat various hematological malignancies. Their extensive use in the cl ...

Biomechanical forces promote blood development through prostaglandin E2 and the cAMP-PKA signaling axis

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Nan Li

Blood flow promotes emergence of definitive hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the developing embryo, yet the signals generated by hemodynamic forces that influence hematopoietic potential remain poorly defined. Here we show that fluid shear stress endows ...

The chromatin remodeller Chd7 and the calcium ATPase Serca2 - adding new facets to the role of Notch in Hematopoiesis and T-ALL

Monique Coersmeyer

Project I: Chd7 Deficiency does not affect N1-driven T-ALL Induction and Maintenance nor impair Hematopoiesis Notch1 has been shown to be a key driver in pediatric T-cell acute lymphobastic leukemia (T-ALL). Previous work in the lab identified the chromati ...

Bioengineering approaches to emulate the stem cell niche

Sylke Höhnel

Stem cell therapies hold tremendous potential for tissue and organ regeneration. Yet, there remains significant need for better ex vivo culture and manipulation methods. On the one hand, many tissue-specific stem cells cannot be propagated without causing ...

Antibody-Mediated Trapping of Helminth Larvae Requires CD11b and Fc gamma Receptor I

Arne Seitz, Romain Guiet, Duncan-Bruce Sutherland, Nicola Harris, Benjamin John Marsland, Beatrice Volpe, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Manuel Kulagin

Infections with intestinal helminths severely impact on human and veterinary health, particularly through the damage that these large parasites inflict when migrating through host tissues. Host immunity often targets the motility of tissue-migrating helmin ...

Release of human cytomegalovirus from latency by a KAP1/TRIM28 phosphorylation switch

Didier Trono, Isabelle Barde, Adamantia Kapopoulou, Marco Cassano, Suk Min Jang, Benjamin Rauwel

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a highly prevalent pathogen that induces life-long infections notably through the establishment of latency in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Bouts of reactivation are normally controlled by the immune system, but can be fat ...

A single epidermal stem cell strategy for safe ex vivo gene therapy

Graham Knott, Jacques Rougemont, Yann Barrandon, Ariane Rochat, Andrea Zaffalon, Nicolas Grasset, Stéphanie Danièle Hélène Droz-Georget, Sara Benmohammed, Emmanuelle Savioz-Dayer, Alessandra Recchia

There is a widespread agreement from patient and professional organisations alike that the safety of stem cell therapeutics is of paramount importance, particularly for ex vivo autologous gene therapy. Yet current technology makes it difficult to thoroughl ...

CDK6 Levels Regulate Quiescence Exit in Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Jie Chen, Cyrille Dunant

Regulated blood production is achieved through the hierarchical organization of dormant hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) subsets that differ in self-renewal potential and division frequency, with long-term (LT)-HSCs dividing the least. The molecular mechanism ...
