Abstract

The substantial understanding that has been gained over the past 5 decades of the biology of blood formation is largely due to the development of functional quantitative assays for cells at all stages of differentiation, from multipotential stem cells to mature cells. The majority of studies have involved the mouse because the ease with which repopulation studies can be carried out with this animal model allows the assay of complete lineage development from stem cells. In the past decade, advances in repopulation assays for human stem cells using xenotransplantation have greatly enhanced our understanding of human stem cell biology. Importantly, the xenotransplantation methodology has also been used to identify the cancer stem cell that initiates and sustains leukemic proliferation, providing key evidence for the cancer stem cell hypothesis. This hypothesis argues that cancer cells are functionally heterogeneous and hierarchically organized such that only specific cells are capable of sustaining tumor growth and continuously producing the cells that make up the bulk of the tumor. Recent studies have also brought into focus the importance of the intimate relationship between the stem cell (normal or leukemic) and its microenviro...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

AML: Role of LSD1 by CRISPR (Keystone)

Find the latest rersearrch on the ability of CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis to profile the interactions between lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 (LSD1) and chemical inhibitors in the context of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) here.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease with approximately 20,000 cases per year in the United States. AML also accounts for 15-20% of all childhood acute leukemias, while it is responsible for more than half of the leukemic deaths in these patients. Here is the latest research on this disease.

Adult Stem Cells

Adult stem cells reside in unique niches that provide vital cues for their survival, self-renewal, and differentiation. They hold great promise for use in tissue repair and regeneration as a novel therapeutic strategies. Here is the latest research.
