Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Exosome Suppresses Programmed Cell Death in Traumatic Brain Injury via PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy
The authors investigated the protective effects of HucMSC-derived exosome in both in vivo and in vitro traumatic brain injury models.
[Small] Ellagic acid inhibited stemness maintenance by suppressing the hedgehog pathway, while Cu2+ further decreased stemness features of tumor cells by disrupting mitochondrial metabolism, effectively enhancing doxorubicin-mediated chemotherapy.
[Translational Oncology] Researchers determined the phenotypic and therapeutic relevance of tumor microenvironment in neurofibroma type I (NF1) patients. Tumor stem cell from NF1 were isolated and cultured using fluorescence activated cell sorting and colony formation experiments.
[Cancer Gene Therapy] Loss- and gain-of-function experiments were utilized to assess the biological effects of METTL3 and SOCS3 on the proliferation and stemness phenotypes in vitro and in vivo.
