Recapitulation of pro-inflammatory signature of monocytes with ACVR1A mutation using FOP patient-derived iPSCs

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive heterotopic ossification (HO) in soft tissues due to a heterozygous mutation of the ACVR1A gene (FOP-ACVR1A), which erroneously transduces the ...

Comparative Study of Xenobiotic-Free Media for the Cultivation of Human Limbal Epithelial Stem/Progenitor Cells. [PDF]

, 2017
The culture of human limbal epithelial stem/progenitor cells (LSCs) in the presence of animal components poses the risk of cross-species contamination in clinical applications.

Rethinking cell growth models [PDF]

FEMS Yeast Research, 2016
The minimal description of a growing cell consists of self-replicating ribosomes translating the cellular proteome. While neglecting all other cellular components, this model provides key insights into the control and limitations of growth rate. It shows, for example, that growth rate is maximized when ribosomes work at full capacity, explains the ...

Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor influences proliferation of osteoblastic cells [PDF]

, 2012
Little is known about the role of neurotrophic growth factors in bone metabolism. This study investigated the short-term effects of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) on calvarial-derived MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts.

Immune synapse molecules knockout in induced pluripotent stem cells enables broad NK cell resistance in T cell progeny

Regenerative Therapy
Introduction: Allogeneic iPSCs provide a potential source for regenerative T cell therapies, yet their clinical application remains limited by immune rejection driven by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) incompatibility.

The Reciprocal Causation of the ASK1-JNK1/2 Pathway and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Diabetes-Induced Cognitive Decline

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Diabetes significantly induces cognitive dysfunction. Neuronal apoptosis is the main cause of diabetes-induced cognitive decline (DICD). Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are remarkably activated by ...

Morphology of Proliferating Epithelial Cellular Tissue [PDF]

, 2018
We investigate morphologies of proliferating cellular tissue using a newly developed numerical simulation model for mechanical cell division. The model reproduces structures of simple multi-cellular organisms via simple rules for selective division and ...

Pterosin B prevents chondrocyte hypertrophy and osteoarthritis in mice by inhibiting Sik3

Nature Communications, 2016
Therapies are needed for the prevention of chondrocyte hypertrophy and thinning of articular cartilage, features of osteoarthritic joint destruction. Here, the authors show that interfering with Sik3 signalling can increase the size of the chondrocyte ...

In Vitro Modeling of Blood-Brain Barrier with Human iPSC-Derived Endothelial Cells, Pericytes, Neurons, and Astrocytes via Notch Signaling

Stem Cell Reports, 2017
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is composed of four cell populations, brain endothelial cells (BECs), pericytes, neurons, and astrocytes. Its role is to precisely regulate the microenvironment of the brain through selective substance crossing.
