|
| The effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection on placental function is not well understood. Analysis of placentas from women who tested positive at delivery showed SARS-CoV-2 genomic and subgenomic RNA in 22 out of 52 placentas. [iScience] |

|
|
| Researchers identified the suppressing roles of exosomal miR-15a-5p from umbilical cord MSCs in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Western blotting observed that carboxyl terminus of heat shock protein 70 interacting protein (CHIP)-overexpressing Wharton’s jelly-derived MSCs could rescue nerve damage observed in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by activating the AMPKα/AKT and PGC1α/SIRT1 signaling pathway. [Environmental Toxicology] |
|
|
|
| The authors attempted to decrease the false-positive rate of non-invasive prenatal testing using cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) fraction enrichment and the SCPMP mosaicism proportion threshold application via cffDNA quantification. [Prenatal Diagnosis] |
|
|
|
| Researchers assessed the effect of human umbilical cord blood MSCs transplantation on schistosomal hepatic fibrosis in mice. [Pathogens and Global Health] |
|
|
|
| Natural killer (NK) cells were isolated from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and human cord blood, and were expanded and activated using a cytokine cocktail. [Pediatric Blood & Cancer] |
|
|
|
|
| Investigators explore what is known regarding the mechanisms by which environmental exposures can impact early intrauterine development and thus result in adverse outcomes in the immediate, short, and long term. [Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists summarize the role and regulation of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in normal pregnancy and reproductive-related disease, and the clinical applications of G-CSF in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization with thin endometrium and repeated implantation failure.

|
| Scientists at Cedars-Sinai are launching their expertise into space to see if they can elevate the next generation of stem cell and gene therapies by harnessing the near-zero gravity conditions of spaceflight. [Cedars Sinai] |
