Simvastatin Modulates Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Proliferation and Gene Expression
Statins are widely used hypocholesterolemic drugs that block the mevalonate pathway, responsible for the biosysnthesis of cholesterol. However, statins also have pleiotropic effects that interfere with several signaling pathways. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are a heterogeneous mixture of cells that can be isolated from a variety of tissues and are identified by the expression of a panel of ...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stromal Cell Proliferation, Gene Expression and Protein Production in Human Platelet-Rich Plasma-Supplemented Media
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is increasingly used as a cell culture supplement, in order to reduce the contact of human cells with animal-derived products during in vitro expansion. The effect of supplementation changes on cell growth and protein production is not fully characterized. METHODS Human mesenchymal stromal cells from bone marrow, adipose tissue and Wharton's Jelly were is...
متن کاملTbata modulates thymic stromal cell proliferation and thymus function
Niche availability provided by stromal cells is critical to thymus function. Thymi with diminished function contain fewer stromal cells, whereas thymi with robust function contain proliferating stromal cell populations. Here, we show that the thymus, brain, and testes-associated gene (Tbata; also known as SPATIAL) regulates thymic epithelial cell (TEC) proliferation and thymus size. Tbata is ex...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem/Stromal-Like Cells from Diploid and Triploid Human Embryonic Stem Cells Display Different Gene Expression Profiles
Background: Human ESCs-MSCs open a new insight into future cell therapy applications, due to their unique characteristics, including immunomodulatory features, proliferation, and differentiation. Methods: Herein, hESCs-MSCs were characterized by IF technique with CD105 and FIBRONECTIN as markers and FIBRONECTIN, VIMENTIN, CD10, CD105, and CD14 genes using RT-PCR technique. FACS was performed fo...
متن کاملDelta9-tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits cytotrophoblast cell proliferation and modulates gene transcription.
Cannabis use in pregnancy is associated with a range of obstetrical conditions. The molecular mechanisms underlying these effects have not been elucidated but are attributed to the actions of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta9-THC). In this study, concentrations of Delta9-THC equivalent to those found in the serum of cannabis users, i.e. approximately 20 microM, inhibited proliferation and ac...
