Cell therapy for cartilage repair [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2021
Regenerative medicine, using cells as therapeutic agents for the repair or regeneration of tissues and organs, offers great hope for the future of medicine. Cell therapy for treating defects in articular cartilage has been an exemplar of translating this technology to the clinic, but it is not without its challenges. These include applying regulations,

A genetically encoded tool for reconstituting synthetic modulatory neurotransmission and reconnect neural circuits in vivo

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Engineering de novo synapse-like connections between neurons could enhance our understanding of neuronal circuits and how they generate behaviour. The authors present a two-component system that creates synthetic neuromodulatory connections to manipulate

Microvesicles as vehicles for tissue regeneration: Changing of the guards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose of Review: Microvesicles (MVs) have been recognised as mediators of stem cell function, enabling and guiding their regenerative effects. Recent Findings: MVs constitute one unique size class of extracellular vesicles (EVs) directly shed from ...

Mechanisms of Schwann cell plasticity involved in peripheral nerve repair after injury

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2020
The great plasticity of Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), is a critical feature in the context of peripheral nerve regeneration following traumatic injuries and peripheral neuropathies. After a nerve damage,

Reprogramming Cells for Brain Repair [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2013
At present there are no clinical therapies that can repair traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury or degenerative brain disease. While redundancy and rewiring of surviving circuits can recover some lost function, the brain and spinal column lack sufficient endogenous stem cells to replace lost neurons or their supporting glia.

Gingiva-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Extracellular Vesicles Activate Schwann Cell Repair Phenotype and Promote Nerve Regeneration

open access: yesTissue Engineering. Part A, 2019
A fully functional recovery of peripheral nerve injury remains a major challenge and an unmet clinical need. Recent evidence has reported promising therapeutic effects of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in experimental ...

NMDAR mediated translation at the synapse is regulated by MOV10 and FMRP

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2019
Protein synthesis is crucial for maintaining synaptic plasticity and synaptic signalling. Here we have attempted to understand the role of RNA binding proteins, Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) and Moloney Leukemia Virus 10 (MOV10) protein in ...

A clinically annotated post-mortem approach to study multi-organ somatic mutational clonality in normal tissues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Recent research on normal human tissues identified omnipresent clones of cells, driven by somatic mutations known to be responsible for carcinogenesis (e.g., in TP53 or NOTCH1). These new insights are fundamentally changing current tumor evolution models,

Utilizing osteocyte derived factors to enhance cell viability and osteogenic matrix deposition within IPN hydrogels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Many bone defects arising due to traumatic injury, disease, or surgery are unable to regenerate, requiring intervention. More than four million graft procedures are performed each year to treat these defects making bone the second most commonly ...
