Isolation and Expansion of Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells Derived from Human Placenta Tissue

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2016
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) are promising candidates for use in cell-based therapies. In most cases, therapeutic response appears to be cell-dose dependent.

Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...

ALK1 controls hepatic vessel formation, angiodiversity, and angiocrine functions in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of the liver

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

Morphology of the villous chorion maldevelopment in early forms of EPH-gestosis combined with anemia of pregnancy

Patologìâ, 2012
On the basis of a complex morphological study of human placenta the characteristic structural features of villous maldevelopment in a combination of edema of pregnant and anemia of pregnancy are defined by the type of dissociated cotyledon development ...

Mechanisms and Pathophysiological Significance of Insulin Resistance in Offspring With Intrauterine Growth Restriction Mediated by Hepatic GR/miR‐1224 Programming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work found that early‐stage insulin sensitization but late‐stage insulin resistance in prenatal caffeine exposure (PCE)‐ induced intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) offspring may be related to the hepatic AGEs accumulation via intrauterine GR/miR‐1224 programming by glucocorticoids.

SLC6A14 Drives Mitochondrial Fusion and Oxidative Phosphorylation to Promote Cancer Stemness and Early‐Onset of Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Elevated levels of the plasticizer DEHP associate with earlier breast cancer diagnosis. DEHP enhances glutamine‐powered energy production via the transporter SLC6A14 and pushes mitochondria toward fusion, driving tumor initiation by boosting cancer stemness. Blocking SLC6A14 lowers stemness, slows tumors, and improves chemotherapy response.

Laeverin is Cell‐Surface Target for Liquid‐Phase Metastasizing Cancer Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study revealed that epithelial cancer cells in the floating phase induce the expression of laeverin (LVRN) that is a trophoblast‐specific and cell‐surface immunoregulatory factor and showed that anti‐LVRN ADC is a promising agent that can attack cancer cells in the metastatic liquid phase and block further distant metastasis.
