Harnessing endogenous stem cells to treat neurodegenerative disorders of the basal ganglia.
New neurons are continuously generated in selective regions of the normal adult mammalian brain. Recent evidence suggests that neural stem or progenitor cells located in the subventricular zone lining of the lateral ventricles can be induced to proliferate and migrate to the adjacent striatum following brain insults or growth factor treatment. This ability to incorporate new cells into the stri...
متن کاملViral vectors as tools to model and treat neurodegenerative disorders.
The identification of disease-causing genes in familial forms of neurodegenerative disorders and the development of genetic models closely replicating human central nervous system (CNS) pathologies have drastically changed our understanding of the molecular events leading to neuronal cell death. If these achievements open new opportunities of therapeutic interventions, including gene-based ther...
متن کاملHarnessing the immune system to treat cancer.
A major challenge for the immune system is to recognize and eliminate cells undergoing carcinogenesis. Immune defense against tumors is complex. It can be mediated early by the innate immune system (i.e., phagocytes, NK cells, NKT cells, cytokines, and complement proteins) and later by the adaptive immune system (i.e., B cells and T cells). The eight articles in this Review series on tumor immu...
متن کاملHarnessing Immune Alterations in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Immune dysfunction, a well-established feature of neuroinflammatory disease, is increasingly recognized in neurodegenerative conditions. Its role is emerging as an early and active participant in neuropathology. Inflammation could be modified, with disease-slowing effects, by targeted interventions; it is also readily detectable and could serve as a source of valuable biomarkers.
متن کاملHarnessing Apoptotic Cell Clearance to Treat Autoimmune Arthritis
Early-stage apoptotic cells possess immunomodulatory properties. Proper apoptotic cell clearance during homeostasis has been shown to limit subsequent immune responses. Based on these observations, early-stage apoptotic cell infusion has been used to prevent unwanted inflammatory responses in different experimental models of autoimmune diseases or transplantation. Moreover, this approach has be...
