Notching up neural stem cell homogeneity in homeostasis and disease
Adult neural stem cells (NSCs) are perceived as a homogeneous population of cells that divide infrequently and are capable of multi-lineage differentiation. However, recent data revealed that independent stem cell lineages act in parallel to maintain neurogenesis and provide a cellular source for tissue repair. In addition, even within the same lineage, the stem and progenitor cells are strikin...
متن کاملFoxO3 regulates neural stem cell homeostasis.
In the nervous system, neural stem cells (NSCs) are necessary for the generation of new neurons and for cognitive function. Here we show that FoxO3, a member of a transcription factor family known to extend lifespan in invertebrates, regulates the NSC pool. We find that adult FoxO3(-/-) mice have fewer NSCs in vivo than wild-type counterparts. NSCs isolated from adult FoxO3(-/-) mice have decre...
متن کاملP137: Stem Cell Therapy in Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative brain disorder which plays an important role in neural cell destruction and as a result it causes memory loss in the patients. This disease is also the most common type of dementia which doesn’t completely respond to medical treatments so no certain cure is available. Recent studies show the advantages of using stem cells (SCs) in ...
متن کاملThe hematopoietic stem cell niche in homeostasis and disease.
The bone marrow microenvironment contains a heterogeneous population of stromal cells organized into niches that support hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and other lineage-committed hematopoietic progenitors. The stem cell niche generates signals that regulate HSC self-renewal, quiescence, and differentiation. Here, we review recent studies that highlight the heterogeneity of the stromal cells t...
متن کاملPerspectives The hematopoietic stem cell niche in homeostasis and disease
The hematopoietic system requires constant replenishment of its end products, a large and heterogeneous array of terminally differentiated cells and corpuscles, which are essential for oxygenation, clotting, and immunity. Because this daily requirement continues throughout the life of an individual, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), the cells at the apex of this well-orchestrated hierarchy, requ...
