Systemically administered allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells do not aggravate the progression of precancerous lesions: a new biosafety insight

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a heterogeneous subset of stromal cells currently tested for multiple therapeutic purposes. Their potential to home into tumors, to secrete trophic/vasculogenic factors, and to suppress immune response raises ...

Caveolin‐1 influences mitochondrial plasticity and function in hepatic stellate cell activation

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 46, Issue 11, Page 1787-1800, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Caveolin‐1 (Cav‐1) is an integral membrane protein present in all organelles, responsible for regulating and integrating multiple signals as a platform. Mitochondria are extremely adaptable to external cues in chronic liver diseases, and expression of Cav‐1 may affect mitochondrial flexibility in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation.

Assessing the combined effect of surface topography and substrate rigidity in human bone marrow stem cell cultures

open access: yesEngineering in Life Sciences, Volume 22, Issue 10, Page 619-633, October 2022., 2022
Abstract The combined effect of surface topography and substrate rigidity in stem cell cultures is still under‐investigated, especially when biodegradable polymers are used. Herein, we assessed human bone marrow stem cell response on aliphatic polyester substrates as a function of anisotropic grooved topography and rigidity (7 and 12 kPa).

Limiting glutamine utilization activates a GCN2/TRAIL-R2/Caspase-8 apoptotic pathway in glutamine-addicted tumor cells

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Oncogenic transformation leads to changes in glutamine metabolism that make transformed cells highly dependent on glutamine for anabolic growth and survival.

Plasma concentrations of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in patients with substance use disorders and comorbid major depressive disorder

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Granulocyte colony–stimulating factor (G-CSF) has raised much interest because of its role in cocaine addiction in preclinical models. We explored the plasma concentrations of G-CSF in patients diagnosed with substance use disorder (SUD) and highly ...

Impact of transient down-regulation of DREAM in human embryonic stem cell pluripotency

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2016
Little is known about the functions of downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator (DREAM) in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, DREAM interacts with cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in a Ca2+-dependent manner, preventing CREB ...

Endogenous topoisomerase II-mediated DNA breaks drive thymic cancer predisposition linked to ATM deficiency

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The ATM kinase is a key regulator of the DNA damage response to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and its homozygous loss in patients predisposes to lymphoid malignancies.
