1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3: A Positive Factor for the Osteogenic Differentiation of hPDLSCs and for the Tissue Regenerative Activity of Cell Sheets
This study aims to investigate the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2VitD3) on osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and the activity of hPDLSC sheets and the differences in the tissue regeneration activity of hPDLSC sheets on tooth root fragment treated by different methods. Healthy caries-free premolars were collected. The hPDLSCs were obtained by enzymatic digestion. Surface markers of stem cells were analyzed by flow cytometry and the multidirectional differentiation ability of hPDLSCs was detected. During the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs, 1,25(OH)2VitD3 was ...

Induced Overexpression of B Cell-Activating Factor by Triiodothyronine Results in Abnormal B Cell Differentiation in Mice
Cell Transplant. 2023 Jan-Dec;32:9636897231204075. doi: 10.1177/09636897231204075.ABSTRACTBreakdown of tolerance and abnormal activation in B cells is an important mechanism in the pathogenesis of Graves' disease (GD) and high levels of thyroid hormones (THs) can drive the progression of GD. However, the interactions between THs and abnormal activation of B cells in the context of GD are not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate B cell-activating factor (BAFF) mediating the cross talk between THs and B cells and the possible underlying mechanisms. A high-level triiodothyronine (T3) mouse model was used ...

Transplantation of Cryopreserved Olfactory Ensheathing Cells Restores Loss of Functions in an Experimental Model
This study is undertaken in two control and two intervention groups. The control groups have lesions alone and lesions with collagen gel but without cells. The intervention groups have either transplantation of primary cultured olfactory bulb OECs (bOECs) encapsulated in collagen gel or cryopreserved bulb OECs (CbOECs) encapsulated in collagen gel. Here, we report that transplantation of cryopreserved rat bOECs encapsulated in collagen restored the loss of function in a vertical climbing test in a unilateral C6-T1 dorsal root injury model. The loss of function returns in 80% of rats with injuries in about 3 weeks comparabl...

Rejuvenation of Senescent Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Prevent Age-Related Changes in Synovial Joints
Cell Transplant. 2023 Jan-Dec;32:9636897231200065. doi: 10.1177/09636897231200065.ABSTRACTMesenchymal/medicinal stem/signaling cells (MSCs), well known for regenerative potential, have been involved in hundreds of clinical trials. Even if equipped with reparative properties, aging significantly decreases their biological activity, representing a major challenge for MSC-based therapies. Age-related joint diseases, such as osteoarthritis, are associated with the accumulation of senescent cells, including synovial MSCs. An impaired ability of MSCs to self-renew and differentiate is one of the main contributors to the human ag...

EGR1 Promotes Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome Through Upregulation of SOX9 Expression
This study aimed to investigate the function and mechanism of EGR1 involved in OHSS progression. RNA-sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes. In vitro OHSS cell model was induced by treating KGN cells with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). In vivo OHSS model was established in mice. The expression levels of EGR1, SOX1, and VEGF were determined by Quantitative Real-Time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), Western blot, immunofluorescence staining, and immunochemistry assay. The content of VEGF in the culture medium of human granulosa-like tumor cell line (KGN) cells was accessed by the ELISA assay....
