The mechanism underlying hair cell (HC) regeneration in the mammalian inner ear is still under debate. Understanding what molecules regulate the HC regeneration in mature mammals will be the key to the treatment of the inner ear disorder. Musashi1 (MSI1)

Numb is not a critical regulator of Notch-mediated cell fate decisions in the developing chick inner ear. [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway controls differentiation of hair cells and supporting cells in the vertebrate inner ear. Here, we have investigated whether Numb, a known regulator of Notch activity in Drosophila, is involved in this process in the embryonic ...

Activation of CHK1 in Supporting Cells Indirectly Promotes Hair Cell Survival
The sensory hair cells of the inner ear are exquisitely sensitive to ototoxic insults. Loss of hair cells after exposure to ototoxic agents causes hearing loss. Chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin causes hair cell loss.

Cell-Specific Transcriptional Responses to Heat Shock in the Mouse Utricle Epithelium
Sensory epithelia of the inner ear contain mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) and glia-like supporting cells (SCs), both of which are required for hearing and balance functions.

Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation: activity in Switzerland compared with surrounding European countries [PDF]
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a highly specialised procedure used to treat malignancies of the lymphohaematopoietic system as well as some acquired and inherited disorders of the blood.

CD82/KAI1 Maintains the Dormancy of Long-Term Hematopoietic Stem Cells through Interaction with DARC- Expressing Macrophages [PDF]
Hematopoiesis is regulated by crosstalk between long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) and supporting niche cells in the bone marrow (BM). Here, we examine the role of CD82/ KAI1 in niche-mediated LT-HSC maintenance. We found that CD82/

Mesenchymal stem cell grafts promote oligodendroglial differentiation after spinal cord injury [PDF]
Transplantation of MSC into the acute injured spinal cord is sufficient to enhance oligodendroglial differentiation of endogenous spinal cord progenitor cells up to one month post-injury.
