Survival Motor Neuron Protein Regulates Stem Cell Division, Proliferation, and Differentiation in Drosophila

Spinal muscular atrophy is a severe neurogenic disease that is caused by mutations in the human survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. SMN protein is required for the assembly of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins and a dramatic reduction of the protein leads to cell death. It is currently unknown how the reduction of this ubiquitously essential protein can lead to tissue-specific abnormalities. In...

Huntingtin Regulates Mammary Stem Cell Division and Differentiation

Little is known about the mechanisms of mitotic spindle orientation during mammary gland morphogenesis. Here, we report the presence of huntingtin, the protein mutated in Huntington's disease, in mouse mammary basal and luminal cells throughout mammogenesis. Keratin 5-driven depletion of huntingtin results in a decreased pool and specification of basal and luminal progenitors, and altered mamma...

Nipped-A regulates intestinal stem cell proliferation in Drosophila.

Adult stem cells uphold a delicate balance between quiescent and active states, a deregulation of which can lead to age-associated diseases such as cancer. In Drosophila, intestinal stem cell (ISC) proliferation is tightly regulated and mis-regulation is detrimental to intestinal homeostasis. Various factors are known to govern ISC behavior; however, transcriptional changes in ISCs during aging...

PLLA/HA Nano composite scaffolds for stem cell proliferation and differentiation in tissue engineering

Abstract Due to their mulitpotency, Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), have the ability to proliferate and differentiate into multiple mesodermal tissues. The aim of this study was to isolate MSCs from human Umbilical Cord (hUCMSCs) to determine their osteogenic potential on nanofibrous scaffolds. To this end, Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA)/Nano hydroxyapatite (HA) composite nanofibrous scaffolds were...

Involvement of survival motor neuron (SMN) protein in cell death.

Infantile spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by mutations in the survival motor neuron (SMN)1 gene. We investigated the role of human (h) SMN protein on cell death in PC12 and Rat-1 cells. hSMN prolonged cell survival in PC12 cells deprived of trophic support and in Rat-1 cells induced to die by activation of the proto-oncogene c-Myc, to similar magnitude as Bcl-2 or IAP-2. While hSMN was ...
