Epigenetic alterations in mesenchymal stem cells by osteosarcoma-derived extracellular vesicles

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are central to intercellular communication and play an important role in cancer progression and development. Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive bone tumour, characterized by the presence of malignant mesenchymal...

Decellularized Placental Sponge: A Platform for Coculture of Mesenchymal Stem Cells/Macrophages to Assess an M2 Phenotype and Osteogenic Differentiation In Vitro and In Vivo

Hybrid coatings for orthopaedic implants formed by physical vapour deposition and microarc oxidation

This study is focused on the preparation of new hybrid layers intended for surface modification of Ti-6Al-4V alloys for potential orthopaedic and dental applications. Combination of the technology of physical vapour deposition (PVD) and sub...

Therapeutic potential of hyaluronic acid hydrogel combined with bone marrow stem cells-conditioned medium on arthritic rats’ TMJs

Abstract Conditioned media (CM) is derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) culture and contains biologically active components. CM is easy to handle and reduces inflammation while repairing injured joints. Combination therapy of the CM wi...

Dysregulation of Angiogenesis and Inflammatory Genes in Endometrial Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Their Contribution to Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a common, chronic, inflammatory disorder in women, characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus cavity. The disease affects ~10% of women during their reproductive age. There is some debates on the...

Targeting ferroptosis to rescue osteogenic differentiation in BRONJ-affected jawbone mesenchymal stem cells: the role of miR-145-3p and exosome-mediated therapy

Abstract Background Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a severe, therapy-refractory condition driven by ferroptotic disruption of jawbone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) biology. We dissect this mechanism to va...

Chromosomal Instability in Various Generations of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Following the Therapeutic Radiation

Background. Radiotherapy is a crucial treatment for most malignancies. However, it can cause several side effects, including the development of secondary malignancies due to radiation-induced genomic instability (RIGI). The aim of this stud...

Detrimental alteration of mesenchymal stem cells by an articular inflammatory microenvironment results in deterioration of osteoarthritis

Abstract Background Articular injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been applied to treat knee osteoarthritis (kOA), but its clinical outcomes are controversial. This study investigated whether an articular inflammatory microenviro...

Establishment of a Pre-vascularized 3D Lung Cancer Model in Fibrin Gel—Influence of Hypoxia and Cancer-Specific Therapeutics

Lung cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide and the one that causes the highest mortality. In order to understand the disease and to develop new treatments, in vitro human lung cancer model systems which imitate the physio...

Worldwide productivity and research trend of publications concerning extracellular vesicles role in fibrosis: A bibliometric study from 2013 to 2022

Background: Fibrosis is a heavy burden on the global healthcare system. Recently, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated that Extracellular vesicles play an important role in intercellular communication under both physiological a...

Encapsulation of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in liposomes prepared by thin film hydration and their transfer to mesenchymal stem cells and cord blood hematopoietic stem cells

Introduction Cytokines are important immune modulator factors controlling homeostasis of the body and are involved in tissue regeneration after wound healing. The encapsulation of cytokines in liposomes has many advantages potentially usefu...

Targeted uterine artery infusion of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells for severe intrauterine adhesions: a randomized controlled trial with exploratory translational analyses.
