Cardiomyocyte grafting for cardiac repair: graft cell death and anti-death strategies.

Reads0

TLDR
High levels of cardiomyocyte death occur for at least 4 days after grafting into injured hearts, in large part due to ischemia.

Enhancing stem cell survival in vivo for tissue repair.

TL;DR: This review focuses on current advances and techniques being used to increase in vivo stem cell survival for the purpose of tissue regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial regeneration: present and future trends.

TL;DR: Current data derived from animal models suggest that it may be possible to treat heart failure by inserting genetic materials or myogenic cells into injured myocardium, and this exciting research still faces significant difficulties before it can develop into a clinical therapeutic tool.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolving role of haematopoietic cell transplantation in radiation injury: potentials and limitations

TL;DR: A review of radiation incident registries indicates that, during this time, 31 patients have undergone transplantation with stem cells from the bone marrow, peripheral blood, cord blood or fetal liver, and 27 patients have expired and the remaining 4 patients have survived with a rejected allograft.

Combinatorial Polymer Electrospun Matrices Promote Physiologically-Relevant Cardiomyogenic Stem Cell Differentiation

TL;DR: Data indicate that ESC-derived cardiomyocyte differentiation and maturation can be promoted by tuning the mechanical and chemical properties of polymer scaffold via copolymerization and electrospinning techniques.

Embryonic Stem Cell Lines Derived from Human Blastocysts

TL;DR: Human blastocyst-derived, pluripotent cell lines are described that have normal karyotypes, express high levels of telomerase activity, and express cell surface markers that characterize primate embryonic stem cells but do not characterize other early lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular survival: a play in three Akts

TL;DR: The mechanisms by which survival factors regulate the PI3K/c-Akt cascade, the evidence that activation of the PI 3K/ c-AKT pathway promotes cell survival, and the current spectrum of c- akt targets and their roles in mediating c- Akt-dependent cell survival are reviewed.
Journal Article

Apoptosis, oncosis, and necrosis : an overview of cell death

TL;DR: Some of the typical features of apoptosis are discussed, such as budding (as opposed to blebbing and zeiosis) and the inflammatory response, and stands in contrast to apoptosis, which leads to necrosis with karyorhexis and cell shrinkage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Derivation of pluripotent stem cells from cultured human primordial germ cells

TL;DR: In this article, a set of primordial germ cells (PGCs, 5-9 weeks postfertilization) were cultured on mouse STO fibroblast feeder layers in the presence of human recombinant leukemia inhibitory factor (HILI) and forskolin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetically selected cardiomyocytes from differentiating embronic stem cells form stable intracardiac grafts.

TL;DR: A simple genetic manipulation can be used to select essentially pure cultures of cardiomyocytes from differentiating ES cells that are suitable for the formation of intracardiac grafts, and should be applicable to all ES-derived cell lineages.
