Antler stem cell exosomes alleviate pulmonary fibrosis via inhibiting recruitment of monocyte macrophage, rather than polarization of M2 macrophages in mice

Cell Death Discovery, 2023
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF), a chronic interstitial lung disease, is characterized by over-abundant deposition of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of collagen I.

Antler cannibalism in reindeer [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractPrion diseases constitute a class of invariably fatal and degenerative encephalopathies. Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a contagious prion disease among cervids, which is spreading and causing marked population declines in USA and Canada. The first outbreak of CWD in Europe was discovered in a reindeer population in Norway in 2016.

Single-cell transcriptome reveals core cell populations and androgen-RXFP2 axis involved in deer antler full regeneration

Cell Regeneration, 2022
Deer antlers constitute a unique mammalian model for the study of both organ formation in postnatal life and annual full regeneration. Previous studies revealed that these events are achieved through the proliferation and differentiation of antlerogenic ...

Antler stem cell-derived exosomes promote regenerative wound healing via fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition inhibition

Journal of Biological Engineering, 2023
Introduction The typical outcome of mammalian wound healing is scarring, a fibrotic process mediated by myofibroblast aggregation. Perfect healing in a clinical setting is relatively unexplored.

IGF1R and LOX Modules Are Related to Antler Growth Rate Revealed by Integrated Analyses of Genomics and Transcriptomics

Animals, 2022
Deer antlers are organs of bone and have an extremely rapid growth rate. Thus far, the molecular mechanism underlying rapid antler growth has not been properly elucidated, and key genes driving this growth rate have not been fully identified.

Extracellular vesicles derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells alleviate pulmonary fibrosis by means of transforming growth factor-β signaling inhibition

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Pulmonary fibrosis (PF), the end point of interstitial lung diseases, is characterized by myofibroblast over differentiation and excessive extracellular matrix accumulation, leading to progressive organ dysfunction and usually a terminal ...

Identification and Characterization of Alternative Splicing Variants and Positive Selection Genes Related to Distinct Growth Rates of Antlers Using Comparative Transcriptome Sequencing

Animals, 2022
The molecular mechanism underlying rapid antler growth has not been elucidated. The contrast of the wapiti and sika deer antler provides a potential model for comparative studies for the identification of potent growth factors and unique regulatory ...

Testing a Local Inbreeding Hypothesis as a Cause of Observed Antler Characteristics in Managed Populations of White-Tailed Deer

Diversity, 2021
The increased use of antler restrictions by state game agencies has led to a focus on antlers by the hunting public, particularly the potential for an association between genetics and antler characteristics. We analyzed microsatellite data from 1231 male

Velvet Antler Peptides Reduce Scarring via Inhibiting the TGF-β Signaling Pathway During Wound Healing

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
AimScar formation generally occurs in cutaneous wound healing in mammals, mainly caused by myofibroblast aggregations, and currently with few effective treatment options.
