Designing stem cell niches for differentiation and self-renewal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mesenchymal stem cells, characterized by their ability to differentiate into skeletal tissues and self-renew, hold great promise for both regenerative medicine and novel therapeutic discovery. However, their regenerative capacity is retained only when in

Exploring the synergy of CRISPR and microphysiological systems

open access: yesALTEX
Since its discovery as an innate bacterial immune system, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) associated nuclease 9 (CRISPR-Cas9) system has quickly landed on mammalian genomes to become the first-in-class editing technique.

Pediatric Developmental Safety Assessment: Are We Ready for the Next Thalidomide?

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pediatric drug development has achieved remarkable success in the last 20 years with over 1,000 products studied in pediatric patients. This success has been driven in part by an increased understanding of pediatric disease processes. The aspect that has been largely overlooked is the potential adverse effect of new drugs on pediatric developmental ...

Beyond Tradition: An Integrated Toxicological, Ecological, and Public Health Perspective on Aristolochic Acids

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...

A Combined Colon Organoid‐Sensory Neuron Model Reveals Epithelial Contribution to Moringin Efficacy Against Painful Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Experimental workflow and main findings of the study. ABSTRACT Visceral pain is a major symptom of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), requiring effective treatment strategies. Gut epithelium, beyond maintaining barrier integrity and microbiota homeostasis, modulates neurosensorial circuitries, influencing visceral sensitivity.
