STAT3, stem cells, cancer stem cells and p63 [PDF]

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Biology Letters, 2018
Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) is a transcription factor with many important functions in the biology of normal and transformed cells. Its regulation is highly complex as it is involved in signaling pathways in many different cell types and under a wide variety of conditions.

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Stem Cell Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
We present a general computational theory of stem cell networks and their developmental dynamics. Stem cell networks are special cases of developmental control networks. Our theory generates a natural classification of all possible stem cell networks based on their network architecture.

Stem cell mechanobiology

open access: yes, 2010
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that are capable of proliferation, self-maintenance and differentiation towards specific cell phenotypes. These processes are controlled by a variety of cues including physicochemical factors associated with the ...

Omacetaxine may have a role in chronic myeloid leukaemia eradication through downregulation of Mcl-1 and induction of apoptosis in stem/progenitor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is maintained by a rare population of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-insensitive malignant stem cells. Our long-term aim is to find a BcrAbl-independent drug that can be combined with a TKI to improve overall disease ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Tankyrase inhibition promotes endocrine commitment of hPSC-derived pancreatic progenitors

open access: yesNature Communications
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have the potential to differentiate into various cell types, including pancreatic insulin-producing β cells, which are crucial for developing therapies for diabetes.

Expression of Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase in Gefitinib-resistant Human Lung Adenocarcinoma HCC-827/GR Cells

open access: yesChinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2018
Background and objective Tumor recurrence and drug resistance are the main causes of death in tumor patients. The family of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) is closely related to the proliferation, migration, invasion and resistance of tumor cells, and ...

WNT signaling regulates self-renewal and differentiation of prostate cancer cells with stem cell characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Prostate cancer cells with stem cell characteristics were identified in human prostate cancer cell lines by their ability to form from single cells self-renewing prostaspheres in non-adherent cultures.

MicroRNAs, stem cells and cancer stem cells

open access: yesWorld Journal of Stem Cells, 2012
This review discusses the various regulatory characteristics of microRNAs that are capable of generating widespread changes in gene expression via post translational repression of many mRNA targets and control self-renewal, differentiation and division of cells.
