Subtypes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma based on niche factor dependency show distinct drug treatment responses

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2022
Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by abundant stroma in which microenvironmental (niche) factors promote PDAC progression.

Niche differentiation is spatially and temporally regulated in the rhizosphere [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2019
Abstract The rhizosphere is a hotspot for microbial C transformations, and the origin of root polysaccharides and polymeric carbohydrates that are important precursors to soil organic matter. However, the ecological mechanisms that underpin rhizosphere carbohydrate depolymerization are poorly understood. Using

Tracing early stages of species differentiation: Ecological, morphological and genetic divergence of Galapagos sea lion populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Oceans are high gene flow environments that are traditionally believed to hamper the build-up of genetic divergence. Despite this, divergence appears to occur occasionally at surprisingly small scales.

Non-cell-autonomous regulation of testicular stem cell niche homeostasis by the 20S proteasome core particle through cell adhesion and cyclin proteins [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology
The Drosophila stem cell niche harbours two principal stem cell populations: germline stem cells (GSCs) and cyst stem cells (CySCs), whose self-renewal and differentiation are stringently governed by niche-derived regulatory factors.

An introduction to niche construction theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Niche construction refers to the modification of selective environments by organisms. Theoretical and empirical studies of niche construction are increasing in importance as foci in evolutionary ecology.

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Niche During Homeostasis, Malignancy, and Bone Marrow Transplantation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are strictly regulated by numerous cellular components and cytokines in the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment.

The Role of Lymphatic Niches in T Cell Differentiation

open access: yesMolecules and Cells, 2016
Long-term immunity to many viral and bacterial pathogens requires CD8(+) memory T cell development, and the induction of long-lasting CD8(+) memory T cells from a naïve, undifferentiated state is a major goal of vaccine design. Formation of the memory CD8(+) T cell compartment is highly dependent on the early activation cues received by naïve CD8(+) T ...

Shifts in climate foster exceptional opportunities for species radiation: the case of South african geraniums. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Climate change is often assumed to be a major driver of biodiversity loss. However, it can also set the stage for novel diversification in lineages with the evolutionary ability to colonize new environments.

A Specialized Niche in the Pancreatic Microenvironment Promotes Endocrine Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2020
The interplay between pancreatic epithelium and the surrounding microenvironment is pivotal for pancreas formation and differentiation as well as adult organ homeostasis. The mesenchyme is the main component of the embryonic pancreatic microenvironment, yet its cellular identity is broadly defined, and whether it comprises functionally distinct cell ...

Endemicity and climatic niche differentiation in three marine ciliated protists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The biogeographic pattern of single‐celled eukaryotes (protists), including ciliates, is poorly understood. Most marine species are believed to have a relatively high dispersal potential, such that both globally distributed and geographically isolated ...
