Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are responsible for the life-long maintenance of our blood system. Their long-term capacity to both self-renew and differentiate and the ability to efficiently âhomeâ to their bone marrow niches when injected in the blood ...
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are responsible for the continuous production of all blood cells. This unique ability has made it possible to successfully use HSCs in the clinical setting to remedy various blood disorders. However, despite six decades of r ...
The identification of cancer stem cells (CSCs) has fundamentally changed the understanding of tumor biology. CSCs drive tumor initiation and long term tumor growth, can cause relapse and are essential for metastatic colonization. These features place cance ...
Androgen-deprivation therapy is the standard treatment for prostate cancer. Despite the initial response, a fraction of cases manifest progression to castration-resistant prostate cancer. PCa recurrence is possibly due to androgen-independent cancer stem c ...
Although stem cells hold tremendous potential for clinical applications, their in vitro manipulation remains very challenging. In vivo, stem cells reside in intricate 3D microenvironments, termed niche, in which many local and systemic extrinsic factors ar ...
Cellular heterogeneity is ubiquitous in any cell population. Understanding these variations is key to answering fundamental questions in immunology, developmental biology, cancer or stem cell biology. For instance, single-cell in vitro and in vivo assays h ...
Regenerative medicine aims to replace or regenerate tissues or organs to re-establish their normal function. In 1975, Rheinwald and Green developed a technique to isolate and amplify epidermal stem cells. Their discovery led to the development of cultured ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths and is reported to be resistant to chemotherapy caused by tumor-initiating cells. These tumor-initiating cells express stem cell markers. An accumulation of tumor-i ...
Embryonic stem (ES) cells have the capacity to give rise to all cell types of the adult organism and can be used as a model to study early cell fate decisions as they closely recapitulate in vivo events. The M and G1 phases have been suggested to be the ke ...
Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) is the most important cofactor of vitamin B-6-dependent enzymes, which catalyses a wide range of essential body functions (e.g., metabolism) that could be exploited to specifically target highly metabolic cells, such as tumour ...
