UC San Diego researchers have identified the molecular and cellular mechanisms that transform healthy stem cells into oral cancer at the earliest stages of the disease ...

Immune complex shaves stem cells to protect against cancer Date: January 17, 2025 Source: Weill Cornell Medicine Summary: A group of immune proteins called the inflammasome can help prevent blood ...

Cancer stem cells are rare immortal cells within a tumour that can both self-renew by dividing and give rise to many cell types that constitute the tumour, and can therefore form tumours.

Explore the role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in prostate cancer progression and discover natural therapies, including milk thistle, turmeric, and green tea, that target the tumor ...

Prolonged illnesses like cancer and chronic infections often leave the immune system in a state of exhaustion, where its ...

Impact of the stem cell niche on aging: we study the communication between stem cells and their niche (e.g. neighbor cells, ECM) in multiple tissues including the intestine, mammary, skeletal muscle, ...

However, glial cells in the brain continue to divide throughout a mammal's adult life. Mammalian epithelial cells also turn over regularly, typically every few days. Whenever stem cells are called ...

A group of immune proteins called the inflammasome can help prevent blood stem cells from becoming malignant by removing certain receptors from their surfaces and blocking cancer gene activity ...

The Under-oil Open Microfluidic System enhances tumor cell-ECM interaction studies, improving anti-metastatic drug testing for triple-negative breast cancer.

Tendon stem cells differentiate into tenocytes (Zhang, 2010); the predominant cell type within tendon, responsible for producing extracellular matrix (ECM). The local stem cell environment (niche) is ...

Researchers have identified the molecular and cellular mechanisms that transform healthy stem cells into oral cancer at the earliest stages of the disease. Nearly 60,000 people are diagnosed with oral ...
