Adult stem cell niches: cellular and molecular components.
As stem cells (SCs) in adult organs continue to be identified and characterized, it becomes clear that their survival, quiescence, and activation depend on specific signals in their microenvironment, or niche. Although adult SCs of diverse tissues differ by their developmental origin, cycling activity, and regenerative capacity, there appear to be conserved similarities regarding the cellular a...
متن کاملTo be or not to be a stem cell: dissection of cellular and molecular components of haematopoietic stem cell niches.
Recent studies have identified multiple cell types that regulate haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs); however, proof that a specific cell type produces a specific factor important for HSC function and maintenance is largely lacking. Ding et al (2012) reported recently that conditional deletion of stem cell factor (SCF) in Leptin receptor (Lepr) expressing perivascular cells or endothelial and haem...
متن کاملStem cells and their niches.
A constellation of intrinsic and extrinsic cellular mechanisms regulates the balance of self-renewal and differentiation in all stem cells. Stem cells, their progeny, and elements of their microenvironment make up an anatomical structure that coordinates normal homeostatic production of functional mature cells. Here we discuss the stem cell niche concept, highlight recent progress, and identify...
متن کاملPlant stem cell niches.
Stem cells are required to support the indeterminate growth style of plants. Meristems are a plants stem cell niches that foster stem cell survival and the production of descendants destined for differentiation. In shoot meristems, stem cell fate is decided at the populational level. The size of the stem cell domain at the meristem tip depends on signals that are exchanged with cells of the org...
متن کاملArtificial stem cell niches.
Stem cells are characterized by their dual ability to reproduce themselves (self-renew) and specialize (differentiate), yielding a plethora of daughter cells that maintain and regenerate tissues. In contrast to their embryonic counterparts, adult stem cells retain their unique functions only if they are in intimate contact with an instructive microenvironment, termed stem cell niche. In these n...
