KIF1A‐Mediated Axonal Transport of Netrin‐1 in iPSC‐Derived Human Forebrain Neurons
ABSTRACT Netrin‐1 is a secreted laminin‐like protein that functions as a guidance cue for axon pathfinding in development. Netrin‐1 also modulates synapse formation in developing neurons and long‐term potentiation in mature neurons. Netrin‐1 is expressed in human neurons; however, its intracellular distribution and trafficking have not been assessed ...

Notch Signaling Activation Enhances Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Retinal Differentiation
Retinal disease treatment by stem cell-based replacement relies on stem cell differentiation into retinal cells. We previously demonstrated that human periodontal ligament-derived stem cells can be directed into retinal lineage upon induction.

Damaging effect of ischemia on the development of retinal organoids derived from human embryonic stem cells [PDF]
AIM: To explore the changes in early retinal development after the occurrence of ischemia. METHODS: Human retinal organoids (hROs) of day 18 or day 30 were treated with oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion (OGD/R) to simulate the retinal ischemia ...

Circulating humoral factors and endothelial progenitor cells in patients with differing coronary collateral support [PDF]
Background - The mechanisms underlying the variation in collateral formation between patients, even with similar patterns of coronary artery disease, remain unclear.

Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Relevance of monocytic features for neovascularization capacity of circulating endothelial progenitor cells [PDF]
Background— Transplantation of ex vivo expanded circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells improves the neovascularization after critical ischemia. However, the origin of the endothelial progenitor lineage and

Long-term gene therapy causes transgene-specific changes in the morphology of regenerating retinal ganglion cells [PDF]
Recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vectors can be used to introduce neurotrophic genes into injured CNS neurons, promoting survival and axonal regeneration.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.
