Mesenchymal stem cells and their microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2011
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent stem cells that hold promise for an expanding list of therapeutic uses, not only due to their ability to differentiate into all connective tissues including bone, fat and cartilage, but additionally due to their trophic and anti-inflammatory effects which contribute to healing and tissue regeneration ...

VEGF-expressing mesenchymal stem cells for improved angiogenesis in regenerative medicine : a bone tissue engineering approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rapid vascularization of tissue-engineered grafts is a major bottleneck in the development of regenerative medicine approaches. In order to overcome this limitation, we aimed to develop a bone tissue engineering strategy combining cell therapy with pro ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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 ...

In vitro exploration of the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium in endometriosis treatment by targeting apoptosis and cellular migration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Reproductive BioMedicine
Background: Endometriosis, a common gynecological disorder involving ectopic endometrial tissue, leads to infertility and chronic pain. Dysregulated apoptosis and abnormal cell migration are key pathological features. Given current treatment limitations,

Mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2005
About 40 years ago Friedenstein described stromal cells in the bone marrow that were spindle shaped and proliferate to form colonies. These cells attach to plastic and are able to differentiate under defined in vitro conditions into multiple cell types present in many different tissues, e.g. osteoblasts, chondroblasts, adipocytes, etc.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Cardiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for more deaths globally than any other single disease. There are on average 1.5 million episodes of myocardial infarction (heart attack) each year in the United States alone with roughly one-third resulting in death.

The in vitro plasticity of hair follicle dermal and mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stem cells from the hair follicle are an easily accessible population of cells that have a broad in vitro developmental capabilities and potential for autologous replacement of damaged adult tissue.

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Advances in stem cell therapy for erectile dysfunction: preclinical evidence and emerging therapeutic approaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
The inability to get or sustain an erection strong enough for fulfilling sexual performance is the hallmark of the common disorder known as erectile dysfunction (ED). It mostly affects a significant percentage of men worldwide, particularly those aged 40
