TGF beta 1 attenuates expression of prolactin and IGFBP-1 in decidualized endometrial stromal cells by both SMAD-dependent and SMAD-independent pathways [PDF]
Background: Decidualization (differentiation) of the endometrial stromal cells during the secretory phase of the menstrual cycle is essential for successful implantation.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in adults. Emerging data suggest that CLL-cells efficiently evade immunosurveillance. T-cell deficiencies in CLL include immuno(metabolic) exhaustion that is achieved by inhibitory molecules,

Relative contributions of stromal interaction molecule 1 and CalDAG-GEFI to calcium-dependent platelet activation and thrombosis: STIM1 and CalDAG-GEFI in platelet activation [PDF]
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) was recently identified as a critical component of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in platelets. We previously reported the Ca2+-sensing guanine nucleotide exchange factor CalDAG-GEFI as critical molecule in Ca2+

Novel fluorescent reporters for the Stromal Interaction Molecule 1
The stromal interaction molecule 1 (Stim1) is a Ca 2+ sensor in the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum whose Ca 2+ sensing triggers its dimerization and subsequent activation of store‐operated Ca 2+ entry via ...

Control of human endometrial stromal cell motility by PDGF-BB, HB-EGF and trophoblast-secreted factors [PDF]
Human implantation involves extensive tissue remodeling at the fetal-maternal interface. It is becoming increasingly evident that not only trophoblast, but also decidualizing endometrial stromal cells are inherently motile and invasive, and likely ...

BackgroundIt has been found that fluoride may cause cell damage by inducing intracellular calcium overload. Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) plays an important role in maintaining intracellular calcium homeostasis, but the effect of fluoride on renal ...

Mesenchymal Differentiation and Organ Distribution of Established Human Stromal Cell Lines in NOD/SCID Mice [PDF]
Two human stromal cell lines were established previously from bone marrow-derived primary long-term cultures by immortalization using the SV40 large T antigen and cellular cloning. After irradiation, the fibroblast-like cell lines L87/4 and L88/5 support
