Evaluation of Plakophilin-3 mRNA as a biomarker for detection of circulating tumor cells in gastrointestinal cancer patients
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2010-05-25)
[Abstract] Background: This study aims to assess Plakophilin-3 (PKP3) as a surrogate biomarker of circulating tumor cells in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
Methods: The primary aim is to estimate the diagnostic ...
Bone marrow cells immunomagnetically selected for CD271+ antigen promote in vitro the repair of articular cartilage defects
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2011-03-22)
[Abstract] Objective: The purposes of this project were to quantify the cells expressing the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) marker CD271 in synovial membranes from human osteoarthritic (OA) and healthy joints, and to determine ...
Induced pluripotent stem cells for cartilage repair: current status and future perspectives
(AO Research Institute Davos, 2018-09-11)
[Abstract] The establishment of cartilage regenerative medicine is an important clinical issue, but the search for cell sources able to restore cartilage integrity proves to be challenging. Human mesenchymal stromal cells ...
Cell and Tissue Transplant Strategies for Joint Lesions
(Bentham Open, 2008-07-11)
[Abstract]
Articular cartilage lesions that do not disrupt the integrity of subchondral bone are not capable of spontaneous repair. The asymptomatic nature of these lesions leads to articular cartilage degeneration and ...
Cryopreservation effect on proliferative and chondrogenic potential of human chondrocytes isolated from superficial and deep cartilage
(Bentham Open, 2012-04-06)
[Abstract]
Objectives: To compare the proliferative and chondrogenic potential of fresh and frozen chondrocytes isolated from superficial and deep articular cartilage biopsies.
Materials and Methodology: The study ...
Notch signalling in cancer stem cells
(Springer, 2009)
[Abstract] A new theory about the development of solid tumours is emerging from the idea that solid tumours, like normal adult tissues, contain stem cells (called cancer stem cells) and arise from them. Genetic mutations ...
Generation of mesenchymal cell lines derived from aged donors
(MDPI, 2021-10-01)
[Abstract] Background: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the capacity for self-renewal and multi-differentiation, and for this reason they are considered a potential cellular source in regenerative medicine of cartilage ...
Statistical degradation modelling of Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) copolymers for bioscaffold applications
(PLOS, 2018-10-01)
[Abstract] This methodology permits to simulate the performance of different Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) copolymer formulations (PDLGA) in the human body, to identify the more influencing variables on hydrolytic degradation ...
Ovine mesenchymal stromal cells: morphologic, phenotypic and functional characterization for osteochondral tissue engineering
(PLoS ONE, 2017-01-31)
[Abstract] Introduction. Knowledge of ovine mesenchymal stromal cells (oMSCs) is currently expanding. Tissue engineering combining scaffolding with oMSCs provides promising therapies for the treatment of osteochondral ...
Long-term effects of hydrogen sulfide on the anabolic-catabolic balance of articular cartilage in vitro
(Elsevier, 2017-08-15)
[Abstract] Healthy cartilage maintenance relies on an equilibrium among the anabolic and catabolic processes in chondrocytes. With the onset of osteoarthritis (OA), increased interleukin (IL)-1β levels induce an inhibition ...
