Prophylactic treatment of rapamycin ameliorates naturally developing and episode -induced heterotopic ossification in mice expressing human mutant ACVR1

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2020
Background Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare autosomal-dominant disease characterized by heterotopic ossification (HO) in soft tissues and caused by a mutation of the ACVR1A/ALK2 gene.

Modelling Torsade de Pointes arrhythmias in vitro in 3D human iPS cell-engineered heart tissue

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Torsade de Pointes (TdP) is a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia often caused by drugs. In response to an urgent need for human tissue TdP models, here the authors describe a 3D human iPS cell-engineered heart tissue that generates TdP in response ...

Heterogeneity and stochastic growth regulation of biliary epithelial cells dictate dynamic epithelial tissue remodeling

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Dynamic remodeling of the intrahepatic biliary epithelial tissue plays key roles in liver regeneration, yet the cellular basis for this process remains unclear.

CPM Is a Useful Cell Surface Marker to Isolate Expandable Bi-Potential Liver Progenitor Cells Derived from Human iPS Cells

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2015
To develop a culture system for large-scale production of mature hepatocytes, liver progenitor cells (LPCs) with a high proliferation potential would be advantageous.

Generation of Scaffoldless Hyaline Cartilaginous Tissue from Human iPSCs

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2015
Defects in articular cartilage ultimately result in loss of joint function. Repairing cartilage defects requires cell sources. We developed an approach to generate scaffoldless hyaline cartilage from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs).

Podoplanin as an Attractive Target of CAR T Cell Therapy

open access: yesCells, 2020
To date, various kinds of cancer immunotherapy methods have been developed, but T cell immunotherapy is one of the most promising strategies. In general, T cell receptor (TCR) or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) is used to modify the antigen specificity ...

Growth regulation in Hydra. Relationship between epithelial cell cycle length and growth rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The relationship between epithelial cell production and growth rate was investigated in Hydra attenuata under different feeding regimes. The increase of epithelial cell number was compared to the duration of the epithelial cell cycle using standard ...

Active growth signaling promotes senescence and cancer cell sensitivity to CDK7 inhibition

open access: yes, 2023
Tumor growth is driven by continued cellular growth and proliferation. Cyclin-dependent kinase 7's (CDK7) role in activating mitotic CDKs and global gene expression makes it therefore an attractive target for cancer therapies.
