Developmental origin and lineage plasticity of endogenous cardiac stem cells.
Over the past two decades, several populations of cardiac stem cells have been described in the adult mammalian heart. For the most part, however, their lineage origins and in vivo functions remain largely unexplored. This Review summarizes what is known about different populations of embryonic and adult cardiac stem cells, including KIT(+), PDGFRα(+), ISL1(+)and SCA1(+)cells, side population c...
متن کاملEndogenous cardiac stem cells.
In the past few years it has been established that the heart contains a reservoir of stem and progenitor cells. These cells are positive for various stem/progenitor cell markers (Kit, Sca-1, Isl-1, and Side Population (SP) properties). The relationship between the various cardiac stem cells (CSC) and progenitor cells described awaits clarification. Furthermore, they may open a new therapeutic s...
متن کاملBig cells, little cells, stem cells: agents of cardiac plasticity.
As of August 2003, the prevailing dogma posited that the heart is a terminally-differentiated organ, that the myocytes we have now are those we were born with (only bigger), and that the best hope for treating cardiac injury is to limit the insult (eg, by prompt reperfusion) or to block secondary maladaptive pathways. Because of pioneering work from various laboratories,1–3 the concept of cardi...
متن کاملLittle evidence for developmental plasticity of adult hematopoietic stem cells.
To rigorously test the in vivo cell fate specificity of bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), we generated chimeric animals by transplantation of a single green fluorescent protein (GFP)-marked HSC into lethally irradiated nontransgenic recipients. Single HSCs robustly reconstituted peripheral blood leukocytes in these animals, but did not contribute appreciably to nonhematopoietic ...
متن کاملReprogramming to developmental plasticity in cancer stem cells.
During development and throughout adult life, sub-populations of cells exist that exhibit phenotypic plasticity - the ability to differentiate into multiple lineages. This behaviour is important in embryogenesis, is exhibited in a more limited context by adult stem cells, and can be re-activated in cancer cells to drive important processes underlying tumour progression. A well-studied mechanism...
