Bacterial genomes accommodate a variety of mobile genetic elements, including bacteriophage-related clusters that encode phage tail-like protein complexes playing role in interactions with eukaryotic or prokaryotic cells. Such tailocins are unable to replicate inside target cells due the lack head associated DNA. A subset mediate antagonistic activities bacteriocin-like specificity. Functional characterization bactericidal two Pseudomonas putida rhizosphere isolates revealed not only...
Neurological disorders are characterized by neurodegeneration and/or loss of neuronal function, which cannot be adequately repaired the host. Therefore, there is need for novel treatment options such as cell-based therapies that aim to salvage or reconstitute lost tissue stimulate host repair. The present study aimed evaluate paracrine effects human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) on migration and neural maturation SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. hDPSC secretome had a significant...
Fibroblast activation protein-α (FAPα) is a membrane protein with dipeptidyl-peptidase and type I collagenase activity expressed during fetal growth. At the age of adolescence, FAPα expression greatly reduced, only emerging in pathologies associated extracellular matrix remodeling. We determined whether human dental tissue involved root maturation i.e., follicle apical papilla pulp tissue. The revealed high concentration vimentin-positive cells within stromal A similar observation was made...
Pathologies of the central nervous system are characterized by loss brain tissue and neuronal function which cannot be adequately restored endogenous repair processes. This stresses need for novel treatment options such as cell-based therapies that able to restore damaged or stimulate repair. study investigated neuroregenerative potential conditioned medium human dental pulp stem cells (CM-hDPSCs) on neural cell (NSC) proliferation migration well neurite outgrowth primary cortical neurons...
