with retinoids should block the progesterone - aided expansion of this dangerous
subpopulation of CK5 +
cells.
As another advantage, APC - mimetic scaffolds enabled us to tune the ratios of
subpopulations of T
cells with different roles in the desired immune responses, which in the future might increase their functionality,» said David Zhang, the study's second author and a Graduate Student working
with Mooney.
For Helicobacter pylori, a pathogenic bacterium that colonizes over 40 percent of the world population and is associated
with gastric cancer, the team discovered that epigenetic heterogeneity can quickly emerge as a single
cell divides, and different
subpopulations with distinct methylation patterns have distinct gene expressions patterns.
Importantly, these devices also will open up new approaches to drug development not possible
with animal models today, such as personalized medicines and development of therapeutics for specific genetic
subpopulations using chips created using
cells from particular patients.»
Developmental biologist Goro Yoshizaki of Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology in Japan and his colleagues set out to see whether spermatogonia — male germ
cells that give rise to sperm — might contain a
subpopulation of
cells with stem
cell - like activity that can develop into either sperm or eggs.
The
subpopulation that failed to produce Wnt1 contributed to tumor growth
with a mutation in a gene called HRas, which regulates
cell division.
These findings are in agreement
with other studies on
cell morphology [3, 4] and senescence [5], and the authors hope to advance these studies by separately analyzing
subpopulations derived from the same bone marrow sample, and also surveying the grade of
cell maturity (surface receptor analysis) and cytoskeleton composition of the
cells during
cell tracking.
Quantitative analysis of Snail and vimentin protein expression by Western blotting revealed a 3 - to 4-fold increase in nuclear Snail expression and an 8 - to 9-fold increase in vimentin expression in the MDA - MB 231 F3 and BCM2 F3
cells compared
with the parental and hypoxia - exposed A3
subpopulations (Figure 6c).
Using a qRT - PCR - based method, we found dramatic decreases of epithelial miRNAs (miR200c and miR205) in the F3
subpopulations compared
with the parental breast cancer
cell lines (Figure 6e).
In our study, we found that the emergence of a small non-adherent
subpopulation (approximately 1 %) survived after the first hypoxia / reoxygenation cycle and speculate that cyclic exposures of hypoxia and reoxygenation may select for the stem - like
subpopulation with the ability to overcome replication arrest whereas the majority of non-adherent
cells can not.
When BubR1H / H; INK - ATTAC mouse bone marrow
cells were pushed into senescence in vitro by the PPAR - γ - activating drug rosiglitazone, a
subpopulation of the
cells exhibited high levels of INK - ATTAC expression and GFP, coupled
with SAβ - gal staining; subsequent to treatment
with the INK - ATTAC activating drug, these
cells rapidly entered into apoptosis, and within 48 h were either destroyed or in the
cell death process.
The lab is delineating tumor dormancy in melanoma and characterizing
subpopulations of
cells with a major focus on slow - proliferating
cells that have high proliferation potential hypothesizing that these
cells are critical for dormancy and therapy resistance.
In previous studies, TERT - / - mice have been generated on either a C57BL / 6J or a 129 / C57BL / 6J mixed genetic background strain, both of which have «very heterogeneous and unusually long telomeres,» again raising the possibility that any developmental abnormalities might be due to
subpopulations of stem
cells with critically - short telomeres.
We hypothesize that SSEA3 expression is either identifying another less differentiated and / or tissue specific stem
cell like population that is retrieved
with the donor skin biopsy or that
with culture, a
subpopulation of fibroblasts may acquire the ability to express SSEA3.
In contrast to germline variants, somatic variants are not propagated to the whole individual but to a
subpopulation of
cells in the body,
with the final consequence that adult human tissues are a mosaic of genetically different
cells.
Single -
cell transcriptomics on pluripotent stem
cells has provided new insights into cellular variation,
subpopulation structures and the interplay of
cell cycle
with pluripotency.
Both transient transfection
with Lipofectamine and transduction
with adenovirus resulted in a
subpopulation of
cells that experessed human IgG, as shown by the increased fluorescence intensity.
Importantly, these
cells expressed CD45,
with smaller
subpopulations expressing the important hematopoietic markers CD117 and Sca - 1, suggesting that these
cells may have the potential to populate bone marrow and eventually replenish senescent peripheral blood hematopoietic
cells.
Fluorescence activated
cell sorting (FACS) analysis of HUF1
cells stained
with the SSEA3 / 488 antibody complex, revealed a larger
subpopulation of
cells with little or no SSEA3 expression and a smaller
subpopulation with detectable SSEA3 expression (Figure 2B).
