Abstract Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells, immunomodulatory stem that currently used for regenerative medicine and treatment of a number inflammatory diseases, thanks to their ability significantly influence tissue microenvironments through the secretion large variety soluble factors. Recently, several groups have reported presence extracellular vesicles (EVs) within MSC secretoma, showing beneficial effect in different animal models disease. Here, we standardized...

Master developmental pathways, such as Notch, Wnt, and Hedgehog, are signaling systems that control proliferation, cell death, motility, migration, stemness. These not only commonly activated in many solid tumors, where they drive or contribute to cancer initiation, but also primary metastatic tumor development. The reactivation of pathways stroma favors the development stem cells allows their maintenance, indicating these particularly attractive targets for efficient anticancer therapies,...

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are adult, multipotent of mesodermal origin representing the progenitors all tissues. MSCs possess significant and broad immunomodulatory functions affecting both adaptive innate immune responses once primed by inflammatory microenvironment. Recently, role extracellular vesicles (EVs) in mediating therapeutic effects has been recognized. Nevertheless, molecular mechanisms responsible for properties MSC-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) still poorly characterized....

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are adult multipotent stem residing as pericytes in various tissues and organs where they can differentiate into specialized to replace dying damaged tissues. These commonly found at injury sites tumors that known behave like " wounds do not heal." In this article, we discuss the mechanisms of MSCs migrating, homing, repairing injured We also review a number reports showing tumor microenvironment triggers plasticity induce malignant neoplastic tissue...

Abstract Graft-vs-host-disease (GvHD) is currently the main complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Mortality and morbidity rates are particularly high, especially in steroid-refractory acute GvHD (aGvHD). Immune regulatory human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hMB-MSCs) represent a therapeutic approach to address this issue. Unfortunately, their effect hardly predictable vivo due several variables, that is, MSC tissue origin, concentration, dose number,...

Most of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients will experience tumor progression with immunotherapy (IO). Preliminary data suggested an association between high plasma HGF levels and poor response to IO in NSCLC.

In this study, we compared the overall gene and pathway expression profiles of HS-5 HS-27A stromal cell lines with those primary bone marrow MSCs to verify if they can be considered a reliable alternative tool for evaluating contribution in tumor development immunomodulation. Indeed, due their easier manipulation vitro as MSC cultures, several published studies took advantage assess biological mechanisms mediated by cells influencing biology immune responses. However, process carried out...

Solid epidemiological evidences connect obesity with incidence, stage and survival in pancreatic cancer. However, the underlying mechanistic basis linking adipocytes to cancer progression remain largely elusive. We hypothesized that factors secreted by could be responsible for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction and, turn, a more aggressive phenotype models of preneoplastic lesions.We studied role two adipogenic model systems from primary human bone marrow stromal cells...

Abstract Notch3 and Notch4 support survival of primary B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) cells, suggesting a role for Notch signaling in drug response. Here we used vitro, silico, vivo mouse xenograft model-based approaches to define the pathway B-ALL chemosensitivity. We observed significant receptor ligand expression cells cell lines. Primary from high-risk patients overexpressed Notch3, Notch4, Jagged2 while displaying reduction levels Notch1-4 following chemotherapy. then...

Background Despite prolonged tumor response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for a subset of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), secondary resistance will occur majority these patients. The understanding late progression mechanisms ICIs is important improve future treatment strategies. Methods We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) on circulating DNA and compared molecular profiles between the beginning ICI in NSCLC treated who had initial progression, after...
