c-Kit signaling confers damage-resistance to sweet taste cells upon nerve injury

International Journal of Oral Science
Taste buds relay taste sensory information to the primary taste neurons but depend on those same neurons for essential components to maintain function. While denervation-induced taste bud degeneration and subsequent regeneration were discovered decades ...

INFLAMMATION ARISING FROM OBESITY REDUCES TASTE BUD ABUNDANCE AND RENEWAL [PDF]

, 2017
Despite evidence that the ability to taste is weakened by obesity and rescued with weight loss intervention, few studies have investigated the molecular effects of obesity on the physiology of taste.

Terminal branch remodeling is not influenced by addition of new cells into the taste bud.

, 2023
(A) Example vehicle-treated and drug-treated taste buds after 8 days of treatment. (B) There was no difference in the rate with which terminal branches were gained/lost when taste bud cell turnover was halted (LDE225-treated mice, 37 arbors from 6 mice ...

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...

Orchestrating the metastatic symphony: the role of extracellular vesicles in the epithelial–mesenchymal transition and pulmonary niche formation of breast cancer

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The complexity of breast cancer (BC) lung metastasis lies in the capacity of tumour cells to interact efficiently with distant organs to promote colonisation, a process that involves the sophisticated coordination of inherent cellular plasticity and the remodelling of the distant microenvironment.
