Tackling cancer stemness with nanotechnology in the era of precision medicine

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Precise customization of nanoparticles (NPs) enables active targeting of cancer stem cells (CSCs), thereby improving drug delivery and therapeutic efficacy. NP‐based probing enhances CSC detection through imaging and liquid biopsy, whereas diverse therapeutic payloads improve therapeutic outcomes.

Formation of neural and epidermal lineages during the differentiation of human embryonal carcinomacells [PDF]

, 2003
Within the ectoderm of the developing human embryo, cell fate determination is largely modulated by factors activated by cell-to-cell signalling. In vertebrates, ectoderm primarily differentiates into neural cells that make up the central nervous system ...

A Role for All-Trans-Retinoic Acid in the Early Steps of Lymphatic Vasculature Development [PDF]

, 2010
The molecular mechanisms that regulate the earliest steps of lymphatic vascular system development are unknown. To identify regulators of lymphatic competence and commitment, we used an in vitro vascular assay with mouse embryonic stem cell-derived ...

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

In silico analysis of putative interactions identifies fibroblasts as hubs for cell–cell communication during early regeneration of the zebrafish heart

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The zebrafish heart regenerates upon injury. During injury response, fibroblasts and endothelial cells accumulate at the site of damage, and cardiomyocyte cell cycle reentry allows cardiac muscle regrowth. It is relevant to understand how the different cell types communicate with each other to coordinate regeneration.

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Improvement of neuronal differentiation by carbon monoxide: Role of pentose phosphate pathway

Redox Biology, 2018
Over the last decades, the silent-killer carbon monoxide (CO) has been shown to also be an endogenous cytoprotective molecule able to inhibit cell death and modulate mitochondrial metabolism.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Beyond a gatekeeper: the non-classical signaling role of STRA6 in driving endothelial senescence and atherosclerosis

Frontiers in Immunology
Endothelial cell (EC) senescence is a fundamental driver of atherosclerosis. This review posits that the primary pathogenic role of Stimulated by Retinoic Acid 6 (STRA6) in the endothelium is not its canonical vitamin A transport but its non-classical ...
