Mist1 Expressing Gastric Stem Cells Maintain the Normal and Neoplastic Gastric Epithelium and Are Supported by a Perivascular Stem Cell Niche [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Cell, 2015
The regulation and stem cell origin of normal and neoplastic gastric glands are uncertain. Here, we show that Mist1 expression marks quiescent stem cells in the gastric corpus isthmus. Mist1(+) stem cells serve as a cell-of-origin for intestinal-type cancer with the combination of Kras and Apc mutation and for diffuse-type cancer with the loss of E ...

Cell surface GRP78 promotes stemness in normal and neoplastic cells [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Abstract Reliable approaches to identify stem cell mechanisms that mediate aggressive cancer could have great therapeutic value, based on the growing evidence of embryonic signatures in metastatic cancers. However, how to best identify and target stem-like mechanisms aberrantly acquired by cancer cells has been ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Bioactive Factors, and Scaffolds in Bone Repair: From Research Perspectives to Clinical Practice

open access: yesCells, 2021
Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapies are promising tools for bone tissue regeneration. However, tracking cells and maintaining them in the site of injury is difficult. A potential solution is to seed the cells onto a biocompatible scaffold.

open access: yes, 2021
Publisher Copyright: © 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.Cancer stem cells (CSCs), known also as tumor-initiating cells, are quiescent, pluripotent, self-renewing neoplastic cells that were first identified in hematologic tumors and ...

Osteogenic Potential of Sheep Mesenchymal Stem Cells Preconditioned with BMP-2 and FGF-2 and Seeded on an nHAP-Coated PCL/HAP/β-TCP Scaffold

open access: yesCells, 2022
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) attract interest in regenerative medicine for their potential application in bone regeneration. However, direct transplantation of cells into damaged tissue is not efficient enough to regenerate large bone defects.

Thrombopoietin in normal and neoplastic stem cell development [PDF]

open access: yesBest Practice & Research Clinical Haematology, 2009
It has been known for sometime that thrombopoietin acts on megakaryocytic progenitor cells to stimulate platelet production. It has recently been discovered that it also stimulates the self-renewal and expansion of normal murine and human haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by acting on its cognate receptor, the product of the myeloproliferative leukaemia

Leukemic stem cell frequency: a strong biomarker for clinical outcome in acute myeloid leukemia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Treatment failure in acute myeloid leukemia is probably caused by the presence of leukemia initiating cells, also referred to as leukemic stem cells, at diagnosis and their persistence after therapy. Specific identification of leukemia stem

STEM CELL IN GASTROINTESTINAL STRUCTURE AND NEOPLASTIC DEVELOPMENT [PDF]

open access: yesGut, 2004
Stem cells are primitive cells located in a specialised mesenchymal “niche” that lack expression of any definitive markers of lineage commitment and are therefore difficult to define and identify. Stem cells maintain their capacity for limitless self replication throughout the lifetime of their host, and can also divide to produce daughter cells ...

Co-Transplantation of Bone Marrow-MSCs and Myogenic Stem/Progenitor Cells from Adult Donors Improves Muscle Function of Patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesCells, 2020
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder associated with a progressive deficiency of dystrophin that leads to skeletal muscle degeneration.

Fine-tuned repression of Drp1-driven mitochondrial fission primes a ‘stem/progenitor-like state’ to support neoplastic transformation

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Gene knockout of the master regulator of mitochondrial fission, Drp1, prevents neoplastic transformation. Also, mitochondrial fission and its opposing process of mitochondrial fusion are emerging as crucial regulators of stemness.
