Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Presenting as Ulcerative Facial Mass: A Case Report – FullText – Case Reports in Oncology 2022, Vol. 15, No. 1
Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that can be aggressive with rapid speed, thus mandating a timely diagnosis to optimize treatment and deter progression. NHL classically presents with lymphadenopathy and constitutional symptoms. However, ALCL can present with nonspecific cutaneous manifestations with minimal or…

A hydrogel-based 3D culture model for Down syndrome-myeloid leukemia and ex vivo drug testing
Abstract Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) provide an extraordinary tool for disease modeling owing to their potential to differentiate into the desired cell type. The differentiation of iPSCs is typically performed on 2-dimensional monolayers of stromal cell or animal tissue derived extracellular matrices. Recent advancements in disease modeling have utilized…
Study of Dendritic Cell Development by Short Hairpin RNA-Mediated Gene Knockdown in a Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Line In vitro
Here we provide a protocol for screening potential transcription factors involved in the development of dendritic cell (DC) using lentiviral transduction of shRNA to obtain stable knockdown cell lines for in vitro DC differentiation. Dendritic cells, or DCs, are key immune cells linking the innate and adaptive immune system. While…

Precision Control of Culture Conditions for Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
By Sally Temple The Nobel Prize–winning discovery that mature, specialized cells can be reprogrammed to lend them pluripotency (that is, the ability to develop into all tissues of the body) unleashed vast potential in the fields of disease modeling, drug screening, regenerative medicine, and wound healing. The reprogrammed cells are…
DNMT1 is a negative regulator of osteogenesis
This article was originally published here Biol Open. 2022 Mar 15;11(3):bio058534. doi: 10.1242/bio.058534. Epub 2022 Mar 3. ABSTRACT The role and underlying mechanisms of DNA methylation in osteogenesis/chondrogenesis remain poorly understood. We here reveal DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), which is responsible for copying DNA methylation onto the newly synthesized DNA…

Frontiers | Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Introduction Hair graying is one of the representative signs of aging. It has been considered to be triggered by a decreased number of follicular melanocyte stem cells (MeSCs; Nishimura et al., 2005; Iida et al., 2020) or dysfunction of MeSCs such as decreased oxidation resistance capacity with aging (Shi et…

Exosomal microRNA-618 derived from mesenchymal stem cells attenuate the progression of hepatic fibrosis by targeting Smad4
Introduction Hepatic fibrosis (HF) is a pathological phenomenon produced in the process of long-term damage and repair in the liver [1,2]. During the formation of HF, hepatocytes are damaged by various factors, such as chronic liver disease, and excessive intake of alcohol, and secrete a variety of cytokines [3]. Subsequently,…
