The SDF-1/CXCR4 axis in stem cell preconditioning [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 2012
We review the pivotal role of the stromal derived factor (SDF)-1 chemokine in tissue ischaemia and how it orchestrates the rapid revascularization of injured, ischaemic, and regenerating tissues via the CXC chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CXCR7. Furthermore, we discuss the effects of preconditioning (PC), which is a well-known protective phenomenon for ...

Mapping CSC‐Mediated Ovarian Cancer Chemoresistance via CXCR4‐PET to Guide Precision Cisplatin Re‐Sensitization Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CXCR4 functions as a potential cancer stem cell‐associated marker linked to chemoresistance in ovarian cancer, and an inhibitor of CXCR4, AMD3100, can enhance the cytotoxic response to cisplatin. Based on these findings, [68Ga]Ga‐Pentixafor positron emission tomography enables selective visualization of CXCR4‐high ovarian cancer, while AMD3100 combined

Polyherbal EMSA ERITIN Promotes Erythroid Lineages and Lymphocyte Migration in Irradiated Mice

Open Life Sciences, 2016
Radiotherapy is commonly used to kill malignant cells, but it can significantly deplete hematopoietic and splenic erythroblasts. Radioprotective agents are therefore very important in clinical radiotherapy.

Peptide‐Incorporated Biomaterials Promote Regeneration of Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Peptide‐incorporated biomaterials provide precise, tunable biological cues that mimic functional protein domains to regulate behaviors of neurons, Schwann cells, immune cells, and endothelial cells, thereby enhancing axon elongation, Schwann cell support, inflammatory microenvironment modulation, and vascularization, offering a promising alternative to

SDF-1/CXCR4 axis enhances the immunomodulation of human endometrial regenerative cells in alleviating experimental colitis

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2019
Endometrial regenerative cells (ERCs) are a new type of mesenchymal-like stromal cells, and their therapeutic potential has been tested in a variety of disease models. SDF-1/CXCR4 axis plays a chemotaxis role in stem/stromal cell migration.

Tumor‐Induced Splenic Remodeling: Mechanisms of Systemic Immunosuppression and Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the transformative impact of cancer immunotherapies such as immune checkpoint blockade, durable clinical responses remain limited. Increasing evidence indicates that antitumor immunity is governed not only by the tumor microenvironment, but also by systemic immune regulation mediated by peripheral immune organs. Among these, the spleen
