Distribution of interstitial stem cells in Hydra [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The distribution of interstitial stem cells along the Hydra body column was determined using a simplified cloning assay. The assay measures stem cells as clone-forming units (CFU) in aggregates of nitrogen mustard inactivated Hydra tissue.

Cell cycle length, cell size, and proliferation rate in hydra stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We have analyzed the cell cycle parameters of interstitial cells in Hydra oligactis. Three subpopulations of cells with short, medium, and long cell cycles were identified. Short-cycle cells are stem cells; medium-cycle cells are precursors to nematocyte

Stem cells, cancer, and cancer stem cells [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
Stem cell biology has come of age. Unequivocal proof that stem cells exist in the haematopoietic system has given way to the prospective isolation of several tissue-specific stem and progenitor cells, the initial delineation of their properties and expressed genetic programmes, and the beginnings of their utility in regenerative medicine.

Forces in stem cells and cancer stem cells

open access: yesCells & Development, 2022
Endogenous and exogenous forces are critical in physiology and pathology of the human body. Increasing evidence suggests that these forces, mechanics, and force-associated signaling are essential in regulating functions of living cells. Here we review advances in understanding the impact of forces and mechanics on functions and fate of embryonic stem ...

Assessment of established techniques to determine developmental and malignant potential of human pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The International Stem Cell Initiative tests methods in a multisite study to detect pluripotency and teratoma formation (PluriTest, Embryoid Body and Teratoma methods) in human pluripotent stem cells.

Proliferation versus Differentiation: Redefining Retinoic Acids Role. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Retinoic acid is commonly used in culture to differentiate stem cells into neurons and has established neural differentiation functions in vivo in developing and adult organisms. In this issue of Stem Cell Reports, Mishra et al.

PTEN, Stem Cells, and Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Like normal stem cells, "cancer stem cells" have the capacity for indefinite proliferation and generation of new cancerous tissues through self-renewal and differentiation. Among the major intracellular signaling pathways, WNT, SHH, and NOTCH are known to be important in regulating normal stem cell activities, and their alterations are associated with ...

The cargo protein MAP17 (PDZK1IP1) regulates the cancer stem cell pool activating the Notch pathway by abducting NUMB [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Purpose: Cancer stem cells (CSC) are self-renewing tumor cells, with the ability to generate diverse differentiated tumor cell subpopulations. They differ from normal stem cells in the deregulation of the mechanisms that normally control stem cell ...

Prostate Stem Cells and Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2018
Stem/progenitor cells play central roles in processes of organogenesis and tissue maintenance, whereas cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to drive tumor malignancy. Here, we review recent progress in the identification and analysis of normal prostate stem/progenitor cells as well as putative CSCs in both genetically engineered mouse models as well as

Transient PP2A inhibition alleviates normal tissue stem cell susceptibility to cell death during radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Unintended outcomes of cancer therapy include ionizing radiation (IR)-induced stem cell depletion, diminished regenerative capacity, and accelerated aging.
