Cellular transdifferentiation changes mature cells from one phenotype into another by altering their gene expression patterns. Manipulating of transcription factors, proteins that bind to DNA promoter regions, regulates the levels key developmental genes. Viral delivery factors can efficiently reprogram somatic cells, but this method possesses undesirable side effects, including as mutations leading oncogenesis. Using protein transduction domains (PTDs) fused deliver exogenous serves an...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) accounts for 80% of all dementia cases, making it the most common form dementia. Aging serves as main risk factor AD, but early onset AD can also occur in individuals younger than 65 years. results from progressive neurodegeneration leading to dysfunctional synaptic transmission brain. The cascade hypothesis states that amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism becomes impaired either by mutation or an interleukin-mediated stress response injury, resulting splicing...

This study evaluated the gene expression profile of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) grown on Biosilicate® /F18 glass (BioS-2P/F18) scaffolds. hASCs were cultured using osteogenic medium (control), scaffolds, and their ionic extract. We observed that ALP activity was higher in BioS-2P/F18 scaffolds than with extract or day 14. Moreover, dissolution product group control exhibited deposited calcium, which peaked 21. Gene profiles cell vitro RT2 Profiler polymerase chain reaction (PCR)...
