Stromal Cells and Extracellular Vesicles
Stromal cells are stem cells in the bone marrow microenvironment that can ‘talk’ with neighbouring and distant cells within the bone marrow microenvironment.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Targeting Orai1-Mediated Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry in Heart Failure
The archetypal store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCs), Orai1, which are stimulated by the endo/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) Ca2+ sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) upon Ca2+ store depletion is traditionally viewed as instrumental for the ...

Mutations of the ca(2+)-sensing stromal interaction molecule stim1 regulate ca(2+) influx by altered oligomerization of stim1 and by destabilization of the ca(2+) channel orai1 [PDF]
A drop of endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ concentration triggers its Ca²⁺ ssensor protein stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) to oligomerize and accumulate within endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane junctions where it activates Orai1 channels, providing ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Six years survival on imatinib with no disease progression after diagnosis of metastatic duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumour: a case report [PDF]
Introduction: A duodenal Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour (GIST) is a rare finding and until recently advanced disease had a poor prognosis. A PubMed search revealed no reports of more than five years survival of inoperable GIST on chemotherapy with WHO ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Expression of the cell-adhesion molecule VCAM-1 by stromal cells is necessary for osteoclastogenesis [PDF]
Osteoblastic cells have been shown to be involved in osteoclast formation through cell to cell contacts. This study was designed to examine the possible function of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) during osteoclastogenesis.

Stromal-epithelial interaction induces GALNT14 in prostate carcinoma cells [PDF]
IntroductionCell-cell communication is an important process in healthy tissue but also gains enhanced attention regarding pathological tissue. To date, the tumor microenvironment is gradually brought into focus when studying tumorigenesis.

Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.
