Companion Blood Cells Control Ovarian Stem Cell Niche Microenvironment and Homeostasis [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2015 The extracellular matrix plays an essential role for stem cell differentiation and niche homeostasis. Yet, the origin and mechanism of assembly of the stem cell niche microenvironment remain poorly characterized.

Dual localization of the carboxy-terminal tail of GLR3.3 in sieve element–companion cell complex [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2023 Glutamate receptor-like (GLR) 3.3 and 3.6 proteins are required for mediating wound-induced leaf-to-leaf electrical signaling. In the previous study, we found that the carboxy-terminal tail of GLR3.3 contains key residues that are indispensable for its ...

Stem Cell Therapy for Aging Related Diseases and Joint Diseases in Companion Animals
Animals, 2023 Stem cell therapy is an attractive treatment for diseases in companion animals that cannot be treated by conventional veterinary medicine practices. The unique properties of stem cells, particularly the ability to differentiate into specific cell types ...

Companion cell mediates wound-stimulated leaf-to-leaf electrical signaling. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S ALeaf wounding triggers rapid long-range electrical signaling that initiates systemic defense responses to protect the plants from further attack. In Arabidopsis, this process largely depends on clade three GLUTAMATE RECEPTOR-LIKE ( GLR ) genes GLR3.3 and ...

Companion cells: a diamond in the rough [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2016 Vascular plants have developed highly specialized cells to transport nutrients and developmental signals. The differentiation process includes the degradation of multiple organelles of the sieve element cells (SEs) to facilitate transport and, as a consequence, SEs become dependent on neighboring companion cells (CCs). Despite its importance for phloem

Differential Distribution of Proteins Expressed in Companion Cells in the Sieve Element-Companion Cell Complex of Rice Plants [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 2005 Sieve tubes are comprised of sieve elements, enucleated cells that are incapable of RNA and protein synthesis. The proteins in sieve elements are supplied from the neighboring companion cells through plasmodesmata. In rice plants, it was unclear whether or not all proteins produced in companion cells had the same distribution pattern in the sieve ...
