Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective identification of myogenic endothelial cells in human skeletal muscle
Bo Zheng,Baohong Cao,Mihaela Crisan,Bin Sun,Guangheng Li,Alison J. Logar,Solomon Yap,Jonathan B. Pollett,Lauren Drowley,Theresa Cassino,Burhan Gharaibeh,Bridget M. Deasy,Johnny Huard,Bruno Péault +13 more
TL;DR: Myoendothelial cells regenerate myofibers in the injured skeletal muscle of severe combined immunodeficiency mice more effectively than CD56+ myogenic progenitors, are amenable to biotechnological handling, including purification by flow cytometry and long-term expansion in vitro, and may have potential for the treatment of human muscle disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of a slowly adhering cell fraction containing stem cells from murine skeletal muscle by the preplate technique.
Burhan Gharaibeh,Aiping Lu,Jessica C. Tebbets,Bo Zheng,Joseph M. Feduska,Mihaela Crisan,Bruno Péault,James H. Cummins,Johnny Huard +8 more
TL;DR: This protocol details a procedure, known as the modified preplate technique, which is currently used in the laboratory to isolate muscle cells on the basis of selective adhesion to collagen-coated tissue culture plates to isolate RAC and SAC populations from murine skeletal muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosomal instability and cytoskeletal defects in oral cancer cells
William S. Saunders,Michele Shuster,Xin Huang,Burhan Gharaibeh,Akon H. Enyenihi,Iver Petersen,Susanne M. Gollin +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that some of the chromosomal instability observed within these cancer cells might be the result of cytoskeletal defects and breakage-fusion-bridge cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
A role for cell sex in stem cell–mediated skeletal muscle regeneration: female cells have higher muscle regeneration efficiency
Bridget M. Deasy,Aiping Lu,Jessica C. Tebbets,Joseph M. Feduska,Rebecca C. Schugar,Jonathan B. Pollett,Bin Sun,Kenneth L. Urish,Burhan Gharaibeh,Baohong Cao,Robert T. Rubin,Johnny Huard +11 more
TL;DR: It is shown here that cell sex is a variable that considerably influences MDSCs' regeneration abilities and should persuade researchers to report cell sex, which is a largely unexplored variable, and consider the implications of relying on cells of one sex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cartilage repair in a rat model of osteoarthritis through intraarticular transplantation of muscle-derived stem cells expressing bone morphogenetic protein 4 and soluble Flt-1
Tomoyuki Matsumoto,Gregory M. Cooper,Burhan Gharaibeh,Laura Beth Meszaros,Guangheng Li,Arvydas Usas,Freddie H. Fu,Johnny Huard +7 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that MDSC-based therapy involving sFlt-1 and BMP-4 repairs articular cartilage in OA mainly by having a beneficial effect on chondrogenesis by the donor and host cells as well as by preventing angiogenesis, which eventually prevents cartilage resorption, resulting in persistent cartilage regeneration and repair.
