How does deregulation of pathways that control
stem cell behaviour contribute to the maintenance and invasive progression of skin and oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCC)?
Title: Muscle
stem cell behaviour is modified by microRNA - 27 regulation of Pax3 expression.
Title: Regulation of skeletal muscle
stem cell behaviour by Pax3 and Pax7 Authors: Lagha M, Sato T, Bajard L, Daubas P, Esner M, Montarras D, Relaix F, Buckingham M Date: 2008 Publication Details: Cold Spring Harbor Symposium on Quantitative Biology 2008.
Scientists from Queen Mary University of London have shown that
stem cell behaviour can be modified by manipulating the nanoscale properties of the material they are grown on — improving the potential of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering as a result.
Professor Knight added: «Super resolution microscopy is a major step forward and we are looking forward to using this technology in a wide range of applications from
stem cell behaviour to understanding arthritis or the development of nanomedicine.»
However, its effects on plant
stem cell behaviour and activity are still not well understood.
Understanding stem cell biology may mean we can control
stem cell behaviour and harness their power for tissue repair.

The survey is small, but it does suggest there is something rotten in the state of
stem cells: a worrying number of respondents admitted knowing about fraud or unethical
behaviour.
April 2012 - New research: Illuminating embryonic
stem cells Collaboration between two EU funded projects «Heroic» and «EuroSyStem», has provided new insights into embryonic
stem cells The teams used next generation sequencing technology to examine two key properties of the
cells that influence their identity and
behaviour: gene expression and gene regulation.
Now in its 6th highly successful year, the European Summer School covers fundamental concepts and examines issues in the field today, from the molecular circuitry that governs the
behaviour of
stem cells, to breaking therapies.
Our global aim is to characterize the molecular pathways that regulate the
behaviour of normal
stem cells during homeostasis, and how they become deregulated during carcinogenesis and ageing.
