Most tissue engineering approaches include the delivery of reparative cells to a damaged host tissue. Generally these cells are sought to be of a stem cell character since they retain a high potential for proliferation and differentiation into diverse phen ...
Cells in our tissues are exposed to complex arrays of biochemical and biophysical cues from their protein- and sugar-rich extracellular matrix (ECM). In concert with cell- intrinsic regulatory cascades, these temporally and spatially coordinated signals in ...
Continuous turnover of epithelia is ensured by the extensive self-renewal capacity of tissue-specific stem cells. Similarly, epithelial tumour maintenance relies on cancer stem cells (CSCs), which co-opt stem cell properties. For most tumours, the cellular ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma, NR1C3) in complex with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) plays a central role in white adipose tissue (WAT) differentiation and function, regulating the expression of key WAT proteins. In this re ...
Epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and is in direct contact with the external environment, requiring keratinocyte stem cells to adapt constantly. Recently, our laboratory has put forward the role of mTOR in temperature-mediated keratinocyte stem ...
The role of the tumor suppressor retinoblastoma protein (pRb) has been firmly established in the control of cell cycle, apoptosis, and differentiation. Recently, it was demonstrated that lack of pRb promotes a switch from white to brown adipocyte different ...
Notch pathway is crucial for stem/progenitor cell maintenance, growth and differentiation in a variety of tissues. Using a transgenic cell ablation approach, we found in our previous study that cells expressing Notch1 are crucial for prostate early develop ...
A combined strategy using bioluminescence imaging, bone densitometry and histology was used to analyze the bone regeneration capacity of human bone marrow (hBMSC) and adipose tissue (hAMSC) mesenchymal stem cells, seeded in an osteoconductive arginine-glyc ...
A biological assay was designed and developed to study the effect of excreted morphogens of mechanically stimulated mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) on neighboring cells. Physical contact of different cell pop- ulations is prevented by patterning the cell ...
Integrins are crucial for the ability of cells to sense mechanical perturbations and to transmit intracellular stress to their environment. We here review the more recently discovered role of integrins in activating the pleiotrophic cytokine transforming g ...
