National Pediatric Cancer Foundation Awards $1 Million Grant to Advance Breakthrough Research for Rare Pediatric Cancer
[NPCF (PR Newswire)] The National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF) has awarded a $1 million research grant to Dr. JinSeok Park to support mechanistic and translational research targeting metastatic fusion‑positive rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare, clinically aggressive pediatric sarcoma characterized by the PAX3‑FOXO1 fusion oncoprotein.
FUJIFILM Biosciences and NextCell Launch New Commercial Platform Comprised of RUO Stromal Cells and Cell Culture Media
[FUJIFILM Biosciences] FUJIFILM Biosciences and NextCell Pharma AB announced a global launch resulting from their collaboration. The offering consists of FUJIFILM Biosciences' PRIME-XV MSC Expansion XSFM medium and NextCell-Cord RUO, a research-use-only (RUO) MSC product derived from umbilical cord tissue.
Procr+ Endothelial Progenitor Cells Govern Hematopoiesis through Fine-Tuning Mesenchymal Stem Cell Niche Signals
[Blood] Scientists identified a subset of Procr+ endothelial cells (ECs) with progenitor-like properties in bone marrow. Procr binds HSPA8 to promote Foxc2 nuclear translocation, upregulating Dll4 transcription to sustain Dll4/Notch3 activation in MSCs, revealing a Procr/HSPA8/Foxc2/Dll4 axis essential for EC and MSC crosstalk.
A New Perspective on Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Their Derivatives in Alleviating Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Dynamically Regulating Mitochondrial Function to Remodel the Immune Network
[Cell Death & Disease] The authors summarize the latest evidence regarding the temporal therapeutic role of MSCs via the “immune-mitochondrial” axis at different stages of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. They elucidate the role of mitochondria as a central hub connecting metabolic crisis and immune storm.
Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Based Delivery Systems for the Treatment of Brain Tumors
[Stem Cells] Scientists highlight the diverse therapeutic roles of MSCs and their derivatives, such as exosomes and engineered vectors, in brain tumor management.
Priming of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Tendon Regeneration: Mechanisms and Clinical Translation
[Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] Investigators synthesize emerging evidence on MSC priming for tendon regeneration, assess its histological and biomechanical foundations, and elucidate its translational potential for achieving biologically integrated and clinically durable rotator cuff repair.
Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Therapy for Remodeling the Joint Microenvironment: Mechanisms, Nanotechnology-Enhanced Strategies, and Translation Prospects
[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] The authors evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and potential mechanisms of bone marrow-derived MSCs, adipose-derived stromal cells, umbilical cord-derived MSCs, synovium-derived MSCs, ESC-derived MSCs and iPSC-derived MSCs in modulating the joint microenvironment.
Autologous Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury
[Brain] This Phase I/IIa study analyzed safety and treatment effect of three intravenous infusions of autologous adipose-derived MSCs in 24 chronic traumatic brain injury patients.
Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Immunometabolic Regulation: A Review of Itaconate-Mediated Mechanisms
[Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] The authors summarize current evidence supporting both direct and indirect interactions between itaconate signaling and MSC biology.
Metastatic Promoting Role of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Revealed by an Improved Bone Marrow Chimeric Model
[Scientific Reports] MSCs profoundly affected tumor development. MSC-deficient tumours exhibite necrosis and infiltration of immature myeloid-derived suppressor cells, whereas MSC-rich tumors show enhanced vascularisation, adaptive immune infiltration, and stromal remodelling.
Multi-Armored Mesenchymal Stem Cells Potentiate Antitumor Immunity to Combat Ovarian Cancer
[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] Investigators engineered MRI-visible MSCs to co-express IL-15 for T-cell activation and XC motif chemokine ligand 1 for type 1 conventional dendritic cell recruitment. MRI-visible MSCs effectively targeted ovarian tumors and remodeled the immune microenvironment to foster potent anti-tumor immunity.
Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Promote an Exhaustion-Associated Phenotype in T Cells through TIM-3 Upregulation Independent of PD-1
[Discover Oncology] Scientists investigated the effects of adipose-derived MSCs on PD-1 and/or TIM-3 expression by T cells isolated from breast tumor-draining lymph nodes.
Mesenchymal Cell News covers topics such as the isolation, identification, and culturing conditions of mesenchymal stem cells, as well as their cellular characterization, behavior and differentiation capacities. We also include research that focuses on identifying tissue sources of mesenchymal stem cells and their potential therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine and cellular therapies.
