Diet-induced obesity alters the differentiation potential of stem cells isolated from bone marrow, adipose tissue and infrapatellar fat pad: the effects of free fatty acids.
(Int J Obes (Lond), 2013-08)INTRODUCTION: Obesity is a major risk factor for several musculoskeletal conditions that are characterized by an imbalance of tissue remodeling. Adult stem cells are closely associated with the remodeling and potential repair ... -
Ex vivo expansion of murine and human hematopoietic stem cells.
(Methods Mol Biol, 2014)Hematopoietic stem cells have the capacity to self-renew and give rise to the entirety of the mature blood and immune system throughout the lifespan of an organism. Here, we describe methods to isolate and culture murine ... -
Plasticity of Hopx(+) type I alveolar cells to regenerate type II cells in the lung.
(Nature communications, 2015-04-13)The plasticity of differentiated cells in adult tissues undergoing repair is an area of intense research. Pulmonary alveolar type II cells produce surfactant and function as progenitors in the adult, demonstrating ... -
Scaffold-free, Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Based Tissue Engineered Blood Vessels.
(Sci Rep, 2015-10-12)Tissue-engineered blood vessels (TEBV) can serve as vascular grafts and may also play an important role in the development of organs-on-a-chip. Most TEBV construction involves scaffolding with biomaterials such as collagen ... -
Utility of telomerase-pot1 fusion protein in vascular tissue engineering.
(Cell Transplant, 2010)While advances in regenerative medicine and vascular tissue engineering have been substantial in recent years, important stumbling blocks remain. In particular, the limited life span of differentiated cells that are harvested ...
