Tumor vessels with resistance to anti-angiogenic therapy are characterized by the normalization of the vascular structures through integration of mature pericytes and smooth muscle cells (SMC) into the vessel wall, a process termed vessel stabilization. Unfortunately, stabilization-associated vascular remodeling can result in reduced sensitivity to subsequent anti-angiogenic therapy. We show he...
Background: Pathogenesis of endometrial polyps have not been fully understood however the increased proliferation of blood vessells and fibrosis may play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometrial polyps. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a a key regulator of angiogenesis and vascular function. Nestin is another molecule which has been reported to be associated with the pro...
AIM Meningiomas are one of the most common benign intracranial tumors, making up nearly one third of all primary intracranial tumors. The majority of meningiomas have benign histological features and total resection is associated with favourable prognosis. Atypical and malignant meningiomas are associated with increased risk of recurrence. In the present study we set out to investigate the role...
Nestin is an intermediate filament protein, which is expressed predominantly in the developing central nervous system and skeletal muscles. In situ hybridization revealed that mouse nestin mRNA is in the optic stalk at 9.0 days post coitus (dpc) and in the lens vesicle at 10.0 dpc. From 14.5 dpc onward, nestin transcripts appear in lens fibers and neuroretina. Immunohistochemistry showed that n...
The p53 tumor suppressor coordinates a series of antiproliferative responses that restrict the expansion of malignant cells, and as a consequence, p53 is lost or mutated in the majority of human cancers. Here, we show that p53 restricts expression of the stem and progenitor-cell-associated protein nestin in an Sp1/3 transcription-factor-dependent manner and that Nestin is required for tumor ini...
Nestin knockout leads to embryonic lethality and self-renewal deficiency in neural stem cells (NSCs). However, how nestin maintains self-renewal remains uncertain. Here, we used the dosage effect of nestin in heterozygous mice (Nes+/-) to study self-renewal of NSCs. With existing extracellular signaling in vivo or in vitro, nestin levels do not affect proliferation ability or apoptosis when com...
We have previously reported that hair follicles contain multipotent stem cells which express nestin. The nestin-expressing cells form the hair follicle sensory nerve. In vitro, the nestin-expressing hair follicle cells can differentiate into neurons, Schwann cells, and other cell types. In the present study, the sciatic nerve was excised from transgenic mice in which the nestin promoter drives ...
OBJECTIVE To observe the expressions of nestin and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and their association with reactive astrocytes following spinal cord injury in adult rats. METHODS Adult rats with compression injury of the spinal cord were divided into 7 groups (n=6) and examined at 1, 3, and 5 days and at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks after the injury. The recovery of the locomotor function af...
BACKGROUND The epithelioid and sarcomatoid histologic variants of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) can be considered as E- and M-parts of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) axis; the biphasic being an intermediate. EMT is associated with an increase of stem cell (SC) traits. We correlated the neural crest SC marker nestin and the EMT marker periostin with histology, type of neo-adj...
AIM Gliomas represent the most frequent neoplasm of the central nervous system. Unfortunately, surgical cure of it is practically impossible and their clinical course is primarily determined by the biological behaviors of the tumor cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation of the stem cell markers Nestin and CD133 expression with the grading of gliomas, and to evaluate the...
