Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Leukemia [PDF]
Leukemia represents the most common pediatric malignancy, accounting for approximately 30% of all cancers in children less than 20 years of age. Most children diagnosed with leukemia are cured without hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), but for some high-risk subgroups, allogeneic HSCT plays an important role in their therapeutic approach ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Bone marrow derived cells as endothelial precursors and the role of multi-potent progenitor cells in repairing ischaemic tissues. [PDF]
PhDIntroduction: Atherosclerosis and its complications are a major cause of death and disability and it remains a major challenge to develop new therapies for patients with irreversible end organ damage and ongoing ischaemia.

Haploidentical transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells [PDF]
SUMMARY Objective: To review and discuss the literature on hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with haploidentical donors in Brazil. Method: Literature review. Results: The haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantations have become a safe option in hematology since the 80s, with the possibility of ex-vivo T-cell depletion.

Differential Hox expression in murine embryonic stem cell models of normal and malignant hematopoiesis [PDF]
The Hox family are master transcriptional regulators of developmental processes, including hematopoiesis. The Hox regulators, caudal homeobox factors (Cdx1-4), and Meis1, along with several individual Hox proteins, are implicated in stem cell expansion ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Spatiotemporal evolution of early innate immune responses triggered by neural stem cell grafting [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) is increasingly suggested to become part of future therapeutic approaches to improve functional outcome of various central nervous system disorders. However, recently it has become clear that only

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
