Stemness in Cancer: Stem Cells, Cancer Stem Cells, and Their Microenvironment [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2017
Stemness combines the ability of a cell to perpetuate its lineage, to give rise to differentiated cells, and to interact with its environment to maintain a balance between quiescence, proliferation, and regeneration. While adult Stem Cells display these properties when participating in tissue homeostasis, Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) behave as their ...

CCL2 enhances pluripotency of human induced pluripotent stem cells by activating hypoxia related genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Standard culture of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) requires basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF) to maintain the pluripotent state, whereas hiPSC more closely resemble epiblast stem cells than true naïve state ES which requires LIF to ...

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 ...

Upregulated sirtuin 1 by miRNA-34a is required for smooth muscle cell differentiation from pluripotent stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
© 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited. All rights reserved. microRNA-34a (miR-34a) and sirtuin 1 (SirT1) have been extensively studied in tumour biology and longevityaging, but little is known about their functional roles in smooth muscle cell (SMC ...

Stem cells: the intestinal stem cell as a paradigm [PDF]

open access: yesCarcinogenesis, 2000
Stem cell research provides a foundation for therapeutic advancement in oncology, clinical genetics and a diverse array of degenerative disorders. For example, the elucidation of pathways governing proliferative regulation and differentiation within cellular systems will result in medical strategies aimed at the root cause of cancer.

Embryonic cortical neural stem cells migrate ventrally and persist as postnatal striatal stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Embryonic cortical neural stem cells apparently have a transient existence, as they do not persist in the adult cortex. We sought to determine the fate of embryonic cortical stem cells by following Emx1(IREScre); LacZ/EGFP double-transgenic murine cells ...

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.

Generation and characterization of erythroid cells from human embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells : an overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Because of the imbalance in the supply and demand of red blood cells (RBCs), especially for alloimmunized patients or patients with rare blood phenotypes, extensive research has been done to generate therapeutic quantities of mature RBCs from ...

Ontological Differences in First Compared to Third Trimester Human Fetal Placental Chorionic Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Human mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSC) isolated from fetal tissues hold promise for use in tissue engineering applications and cell-based therapies, but their collection is restricted ethically and technically.

Regulation of boundary cap neural crest stem cell differentiation after transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Success of cell replacement therapies for neurological disorders will depend largely on the optimization of strategies to enhance viability and control the developmental fate of stem cells after transplantation.
