    Regenerating Human Skeletal Muscle Forms an Emerging Niche In Vivo to Support PAX7 Cells

    Researchers determined whether competition with mouse satellite cells (SCs) prevented skeletal muscle progenitor cell engraftment into the SC niche and thus generated an SC ablation mouse compatible with human engraftment.

    Abstract

    AT7867 Promotes Pancreatic Progenitor Differentiation of Human iPSCs

    Scientists performed pancreatic progenitor differentiation with and without AKT/P70 inhibitor AT7867 and characterized the resulting cells at protein and transcript level in vitro and in vivo upon transplantation into diabetic mice.

    CAR T Cell Therapy for Patients with Solid Tumors: Key Lessons to Learn and Unlearn

    The author re-evaluates current data and suggests potential pathways towards greater success, drawing lessons from the few successful trials testing CAR T cells in patients with solid tumors and the clinical experience with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.
    [Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology]

    Abstract

    Smart Nanoparticles for Cancer Therapy

    Scientists highlight recent advancements in smart nanoparticles, including polymeric nanoparticles, dendrimers, micelles, liposomes, protein nanoparticles, cell membrane nanoparticles, and more.
