Epigenetic regulation of stem cell fate.
Stem cell-based regenerative medicine holds great promise for repair of diseased tissue. Modern directions in the field of epigenetic research aimed to decipher the epigenetic signals that give stem cells their unique ability to self-renew and differentiate into different cell types. However, this research is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to writing an 'epigenetic instruction manual...
متن کاملImmune Influence on Adult Neural Stem Cell Regulation and Function
Neural stem cells (NSCs) lie at the heart of central nervous system development and repair, and deficiency or dysregulation of NSCs or their progeny can have significant consequences at any stage of life. Immune signaling is emerging as one of the influential variables that define resident NSC behavior. Perturbations in local immune signaling accompany virtually every injury or disease state, a...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of neural stem cell property from embryo to adult
Article history: Received 2 September 2015 Received in revised form 8 January 2016 Accepted 8 January 2016 Neural stem cells (NSCs) have the ability to self-renew and give rise to neurons and glial cells (astrocytes and oligodendrocytes) in the mammalian central nervous system. This multipotency is acquired by NSCs during development and is maintained throughout life. Proliferation, fate specif...
متن کاملMathematical model of adult stem cell regeneration with cross-talk between genetic and epigenetic regulation.
Adult stem cells, which exist throughout the body, multiply by cell division to replenish dying cells or to promote regeneration to repair damaged tissues. To perform these functions during the lifetime of organs or tissues, stem cells need to maintain their populations in a faithful distribution of their epigenetic states, which are susceptible to stochastic fluctuations during each cell divis...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of glioma stem-like cell differentiation
CAPSULE Background: Molecular mechanisms underlying heterogeneity of glioblastoma are poorly understood. Result: Newly identified microRNA-1275, which is controlled by a polycomb-mediated silencing mechanism, regulates expression of oligodendroglial lineage gene, CLDN11, in glioma stem-like cells. Conclusion: MicroRNA-1275 may contribute to the establishment of tissue heterogeneity via epigenet...
