Tumor microenvironment complexity and therapeutic implications at a glance

Roghayyeh Baghban, Leila Roshangar, Rana Jahanban‐Esfahlan et al. · 7 Apr 2020

The dynamic interactions of cancer cells with their microenvironment consisting of stromal cells (cellular part) and extracellular matrix (ECM) components (non-cellular) is essential to stimulate the heterogeneity of cancer cell, clonal evolution and to increase the multidrug resistance ending in cancer cell progression and metastasis. The reciprocal cell-cell/ECM interaction and tumor cell hijacking of non-malignant…

Different populations and sources of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC): A comparison of adult and neonatal tissue-derived MSC

Ralf Hass, Cornelia Kasper, Stefanie Böhm et al. · 14 May 2011

The mesenchymal stroma harbors an important population of cells that possess stem cell-like characteristics including self renewal and differentiation capacities and can be derived from a variety of different sources. These multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can be found in nearly all tissues and are mostly located in perivascular niches. MSC have migratory abilities and…

The exosome journey: from biogenesis to uptake and intracellular signalling

Sonam Gurung, Dany Perocheau, Loukia Touramanidou et al. · 23 Apr 2021

The use of exosomes in clinical settings is progressively becoming a reality, as clinical trials testing exosomes for diagnostic and therapeutic applications are generating remarkable interest from the scientific community and investors. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles secreted by all cell types playing intercellular communication roles in health and disease by transferring cellular cargoes such…

PARP-1 cleavage fragments: signatures of cell-death proteases in neurodegeneration

Ganta Vijay Chaitanya, J. Steven Alexander, Phanithi Prakash Babu · 1 Dec 2010

The normal function of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is the routine repair of DNA damage by adding poly (ADP ribose) polymers in response to a variety of cellular stresses. Recently, it has become widely appreciated that PARP-1 also participates in diverse physiological and pathological functions from cell survival to several forms of cell death and…

The role of JAK-STAT signaling pathway and its regulators in the fate of T helper cells

Farhad Seif, Majid Khoshmirsafa, Hossein Aazami et al. · 21 Jun 2017

The Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway plays critical roles in orchestrating of immune system, especially cytokine receptors and they can modulate the polarization of T helper cells. This pathway is regulated by an array of regulator proteins, including Suppressors of Cytokine Signaling (SOCS), Protein Inhibitors of Activated STATs (PIAS) and…
