Influence of Perinatal Factors on Gene Expression of IAPs Family and Main Factors of Pluripotency: OCT4 and SOX2 in Human Breast Milk Stem Cells-A Preliminary Report

Paulina Gil-Kulik et al.

Summary: The expression of eight genes from the IAP family and the gene regulating IAP-XAF1 in stem cells derived from human milk was evaluated. The study revealed the relationships between gene expression and clinical data such as maternal age, maternal BMI, week of pregnancy, bodyweight of the newborn, number of pregnancies and deliveries, and time elapsed since delivery. This research is the first to investigate the expression of genes from the IAPs family in mother's milk stem cells.

Thyroid hormone enhances stem cell maintenance and promotes lineage-specific differentiation in human embryonic stem cells

Chunhao Deng et al.

Summary: In this study, the impact of T3 on stem cell culture and lineage-specific differentiation was investigated using human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). T3 was found to enhance stem cell maintenance, improve culture consistency, modulate cellular metabolism, and promote energy production. The hormone also supported pluripotency by promoting specific signaling pathways and reduced dependence on certain growth factors. Furthermore, T3 significantly enhanced trophoblast differentiation under a specific induction condition. These findings highlight the potential role of T3 in improving stem cell applications.

Evaluation of the Impact of Pregnancy-Associated Factors on the Quality of Wharton's Jelly-Derived Stem Cells Using SOX2 Gene Expression as a Marker

Paulina Gil-Kulik et al.

Summary: SOX2, a pluripotent transcription factor, plays a crucial role in stem cell homeostasis and development. Research indicates that maternal age, umbilical cord blood pH, and length of pregnancy can influence the quality of stem cells derived from Wharton's Jelly, highlighting the importance of assessing maternal and embryonic factors in cell quality.

Exploring the Intracrine Functions of VEGF-A

Sophie Wiszniak et al.

Summary: VEGF-A is well-known for its roles in vascular development and angiogenesis, but it is also expressed in non-vascular cell types and various cancers. Intracellular VEGF has emerged as a key signalling molecule regulating cell growth, survival, and metabolism.

Extracellular Vesicle-Derived microRNAs of Human Wharton's Jelly Mesenchymal Stromal Cells May Activate Endogenous VEGF-A to Promote Angiogenesis

Cinzia Maria Chinnici et al.

Summary: The study revealed that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from human umbilical cord Wharton's Jelly (WJ) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) play a key regulatory role in promoting proangiogenic responses through the delivery of microRNAs. These EVs contain highly expressed microRNAs that target multiple genes associated with angiogenesis and tissue repair, enhancing tube formation, migration, and proliferation of human umbilical-vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Effect of Long-Term 3D Spheroid Culture on WJ-MSC

Agnieszka Kaminska et al.

Summary: The study aimed to cultivate MSC subpopulation with increased pluripotent and neural gene expression through a 3D spheroid culture system. Results showed that prolonged 3D culture led to increased senescence, decreased stemness and proliferation in MSC, but allowed for the selection of cells with elevated expression of neural markers indicating unique features.

Pluripotent and Multipotent Stem Cells and Current Therapeutic Applications: Review

Misganaw Gebrie Worku

Summary: Stem cells play a crucial role in the treatment of various diseases, with their ability to proliferate indefinitely and remain undifferentiated. Clinical trials have shown their effectiveness in treating conditions such as ischemic heart disease, spinal cord injuries, and diabetes mellitus. The fate and activity of stem cells are influenced by factors such as the extracellular matrix and the cellular environment.

Preclinical Studies and Clinical Prospects of Wharton's Jelly-Derived MSC for Treatment of Acute Radiation Syndrome

Mayuri Bandekar et al.

Summary: Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) have shown promise in mitigating acute radiation syndrome and protecting against radiation-induced damage, particularly in radiosensitive tissues. Recent findings support the potential safety and effectiveness of WJ-MSCs for treating acute radiation syndrome and lung injuries, with further research needed for clinical translation and understanding of their molecular mechanisms.
