Systematic screen of chemotherapeutics in Drosophila stem cell tumors.
Here we report the development of an in vivo system to study the interaction of stem cells with drugs using a tumor model in the adult Drosophila intestine. Strikingly, we find that some Food and Drug Administration-approved chemotherapeutics that can inhibit the growth of Drosophila tumor stem cells can paradoxically promote the hyperproliferation of their wild-type counterparts. These results...
متن کاملRole of Stem Cell Transplantation in the Treatment of Burkitt Lymphoma; A Systematic Review
Background: Burkitt lymphoma is a common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in children. It has a rapid and aggressive clinical course with frequent involvement of bone marrow and central nervous system. Systemic chemotherapy is the mainstay of the treatment for this malignancy in children. In this systematic review, we discuss autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSC...
متن کاملClinical Applicability of Stem Cell Therapy in Dental Diseases: A Systematic Review of Available Clinical Trials
Background: Developing cell-based therapeutic methods for the differentiation of various stem cells to the dental tissues could be a revolutionary step towards the use of cell therapy for dental disease. In the present study, we aimed to systematically review the literature to establish the efficiency of stem cells in treatment of various dental diseases. Methods: A literature search was perfo...
متن کامل02-P022 A Drosophila genetic screen to identify novel regulators of stem cell growth and differentiation
Stem cell research is fuelled by the belief that in the future these cells will be used to treat tissues damaged by disease and injury. However before stem cells can be utilized in regenerative medicines in humans the basic biology of stem cells needs to be clearly understood. Stem cells require a unique micro environment termed a ‘niche’. The niche is important for maintaining an appropriate n...
متن کاملLoss-of-Function Screen Reveals Novel Regulators Required for Drosophila Germline Stem Cell Self-Renewal
The germline stem cells (GSCs) of Drosophila melanogaster ovary provide an excellent model system to study the molecular mechanisms of stem cell self-renewal. To reveal novel factors required for Drosophila female GSC maintenance and/or division, we performed a loss-of-function screen in GSCs by using a collection of P-element-induced alleles of essential genes. Mutations in genes of various fu...
