[Journal of Cellular Physiology] The authors examined the early effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) in pericytes from experimentally injured pulp tissue. In vitro, PBM induced VEGF upregulation, improved dental pulp cells proliferation and migration, and favored their mineralization potential.

[Cell Death & Disease] Researchers studied the role of the Par3 protein (encoded by PARD3) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). GBM patient transcriptomic data and patient-derived culture analysis indicated diverse levels of expression of PARD3 across and independent from subtypes

[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] The authors cultured rat Schwann cells, aortic endothelial cells, and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and then obtained BM-MSC-derived induced endothelial cells and induced osteoblasts.

[Neuroscience Letters] The authors investigated the differentiation capacity of human adult MSCs derived from adipose tissue into dopaminergic and neuron-like cells in the 3D culture plate.

[Science Advances] we demonstrate that the adult hippocampal neural progenitors harbor an inflammatory potential that is proactively suppressed by transcription factor 4 (Tcf4).

[Cell Stem Cell] Investigators discovered and characterized a rare malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) cell population with stem-cell-like properties, including quiescence, that was essential for tumor initiation and relapse.
