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 ...

Micro- and nanoengineering approaches to control stem cell-biomaterial interactions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
As our population ages, there is a greater need for a suitable supply of engineered tissues to address a range of debilitating ailments. Stem cell based therapies are envisioned to meet this emerging need. Despite significant progress in controlling stem

Theory of Robustness of Irreversible Differentiation in a Stem Cell System: Chaos hypothesis

open access: yes, 2000
Based on extensive study of a dynamical systems model of the development of a cell society, a novel theory for stem cell differentiation and its regulation is proposed as the ``chaos hypothesis''.

DNA Methylation Analysis Validates Organoids as a Viable Model for Studying Human Intestinal Aging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background & aimsThe epithelia of the intestine and colon turn over rapidly and are maintained by adult stem cells at the base of crypts. Although the small intestine and colon have distinct, well-characterized physiological functions, it remains ...

Floral stem cell termination involves the direct regulation of AGAMOUS by PERIANTHIA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In Arabidopsis, the population of stem cells present in young flower buds is lost after the production of a fixed number of floral organs. The precisely timed repression of the stem cell identity gene WUSCHEL (WUS) by the floral homeotic protein AGAMOUS (

Control of intestinal stem cell function and proliferation by mitochondrial pyruvate metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Most differentiated cells convert glucose to pyruvate in the cytosol through glycolysis, followed by pyruvate oxidation in the mitochondria. These processes are linked by the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC), which is required for efficient ...

Influencing the secretion of myogenic factors from mesenchymal stem cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mounting evidence indicates that the regenerative effect of mesenchymal stem cells in skeletal muscle is related to the secretion of factors that stimulate resident myogenic cells.

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.

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 ...
