Stem and progenitor cells: Origins, phenotypes, lineage commitments, and transdifferentiations [PDF]

, 2001
Multipotent stem cells are clonal cells that self-renew as well as differentiate to regenerate adult tissues. Whereas stem cells and their fates are known by unique genetic marker studies, the fate and function of these cells are best studied by their ...

Distribution of interstitial stem cells in Hydra [PDF]

, 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.

First steps to define murine amniotic fluid stem cell microenvironment [PDF]

, 2016
Stem cell niche refers to the microenvironment where stem cells reside in living organisms. Several elements define the niche and regulate stem cell characteristics, such as stromal support cells, gap junctions, soluble factors, extracellular matrix ...

T-Bet and Eomes Regulate the Balance between the Effector/Central Memory T Cells versus Memory Stem Like T Cells [PDF]

, 2013
Memory T cells are composed of effector, central, and memory stem cells. Previous studies have implicated that both T-bet and Eomes are involved in the generation of effector and central memory CD8 T cells.

Stem cells supporting other stem cells [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2013
Adult stem cell therapies are increasingly prevalent for the treatment of damaged or diseased tissues, but most of the improvements observed to date are attributed to the ability of stem cells to produce paracrine factors that have a trophic effect on existing tissue cells, improving their functional capacity.

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

Journal 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 ...

Induced Stem Cells as a Novel Multiple Sclerosis Therapy. [PDF]

, 2016
Stem cell replacement is providing hope for many degenerative diseases that lack effective therapeutic methods including multiple sclerosis (MS), an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Transplantation of neural stem cells or

Prostate Stem Cells and Cancer Stem Cells [PDF]

Cold 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

Physiological conditions influencing regenerative potential of stem cells [PDF]

, 2016
Stem cells are being used in the treatment of cardivovascular diseases. Here, we review the physiologic and pathologic conditions that impact the regenerative potential of stem cells in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases which include the influence

Embryonic stem cell-derived hematopoietic stem cells [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005
Despite two decades of studies documenting thein vitroblood-forming potential of murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs), achieving stable long-term blood engraftment of ESC-derived hematopoietic stem cells in irradiated mice has proven difficult. We have exploited theCdx-Hoxpathway, a genetic program important for blood development, to enhance the ...
