Reference-based analysis of lung single-cell sequencing reveals a transitional profibrotic macrophage. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tissue fibrosis is a major cause of mortality that results from the deposition of matrix proteins by an activated mesenchyme. Macrophages accumulate in fibrosis, but the role of specific subgroups in supporting fibrogenesis has not been investigated in ...

Spinal Progenitor-Laden Bridges Support Earlier Axon Regeneration Following Spinal Cord Injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Impact statementSpinal cord injury (SCI) results in loss of tissue innervation below the injury. Spinal progenitors have a greater ability to repair the damage and can be injected into the injury, but their regenerative potential is hampered by their ...

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 Homodimerization Rapidly Reduces Transcription of the Pluripotency Gene Nanog without Dissociation of Activating Transcription Factors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Nanog or Gata6-positive cells co-exist and are convertible within the inner cell mass of murine blastocysts and embryonic stem (ES) cells. Previous studies demonstrate fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) triggers Nanog gene down-regulation and differentiation to primitive endoderm (PE); however, the underlying mechanisms responsible for ...

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...

Effects of acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (aFGF, bFGF) on glial precursor cell proliferation: age dependency and brain region specificity.

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 1992
Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are present in high levels in most areas of the embryonic rodent brain. To begin to understand the role of these growth factors in brain development, the effects of aFGF and

Role of proton dissociation in the transport of cystine and glutamate in human diploid fibroblasts in culture.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1981
The effect of extracellular pH on the transport interaction of cystine and glutamate in cultured human diploid cells was examined over the pH range of 5.8-8.0. The initial rates of uptake of cystine increased with an increase in pH and glutamate potently inhibited the cystine uptake independently of pH.

4D‐Printable Poly(Thio)urethane Photoresins With Reactive Oxygen Species Responsiveness and Anti‐Inflammatory Functionality

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces UV‐curable poly(thio)urethane (PSU) thermosets as 4D printable scaffolds responsive to oxidative stress. PSU networks with 100 wt.% polypropylene glycol (PPG) effectively suppress inflammatory markers in microglial cells to basal values.

Breast pericytes: a newly identified driver of tumor cell proliferation

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
IntroductionEffective treatment of breast cancer remains a formidable challenge, partly due to our limited understanding of the complex microenvironmental factors that contribute to disease pathology.

Uptake and release of [3H]gamma-aminobutyric acid by embryonic spinal cord neurons in dissociated cell culture

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 1979
We have investigated the uptake and release of [3H]gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by embryonic chick spinal cord cells maintained in culture. Cells dissociated from 4- or 7-d-old embryos were studied between 1 and 3 wk after plating.

Chloride channels regulate differentiation and barrier functions of the mammalian airway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The conducting airway forms a protective mucosal barrier and is the primary target of airway disorders. The molecular events required for the formation and function of the airway mucosal barrier, as well as the mechanisms by which barrier dysfunction ...
