Organ-level quorum sensing directs regeneration in hair stem cell populations

TLDR
By coupling immune response with regeneration, this mechanism allows skin to respond predictively to distress, disregarding mild injury, while meeting stronger injury with full-scale cooperative activation of stem cells.

Macrophages in Tissue Repair, Regeneration, and Fibrosis

Thomas A. Wynn, +1 more
- 15 Mar 2016 - 
TL;DR: This review discusses the mechanisms that instruct macrophages to adopt pro-inflammatory, pro-wound-healing,pro-fibrotic, anti- inflammatory, anti -fib rotic, Pro-resolving, and tissue-regenerating phenotypes after injury, and highlights how some of these mechanisms and macrophage activation states could be exploited therapeutically.

Quorum sensing signal–response systems in Gram-negative bacteria

TL;DR: This Review examines how features of quorum sensing signal–response systems combine to control collective behaviours in Gram-negative bacteria and the implications for host–microbial associations and antibacterial therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The senescence-associated secretory phenotype induces cellular plasticity and tissue regeneration

TL;DR: A primary and beneficial role is uncovered for the senescence-associated secretory phenotype in promoting cell plasticity and tissue regeneration and the concept that transient therapeutic delivery of senescent cells could be harnessed to drive tissue regeneration is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomical, Physiological, and Functional Diversity of Adipose Tissue

TL;DR: As the recognition of diverse adipose depot functions increases, novel therapeutic approaches centered on tissue-specific adipocytes are likely to emerge for a range of cancers and regenerative, infectious, and autoimmune disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammatory Cytokine TNFα Promotes the Long-Term Expansion of Primary Hepatocytes in 3D Culture

TL;DR: In vitro-expanded hepatocytes engrafted, and significantly repopulated, the injured livers of Fah-/- mice, it is shown that TNFα, an injury-induced inflammatory cytokine, promotes the expansion of hepatocytes in 3D culture and enables serial passaging and long-term culture for more than 6 months.

Alternative activation of macrophages

TL;DR: The evidence in favour of alternative macrophage activation by the TH2-type cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-13 is assessed, and its limits and relevance to a range of immune and inflammatory conditions are defined.

Quorum Sensing in Bacteria

TL;DR: The evolution of quorum sensing systems in bacteria could, therefore, have been one of the early steps in the development of multicellularity.

Controls of hair follicle cycling.

Kurt S. Stenn, +1 more
TL;DR: This review has used Chase as the model and tried to put the adult hair follicle growth cycle in perspective, and hopes that this work will serve as an introduction to basic biologists who are looking for a defined biological system that illustrates many of the challenges of modern biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive guide for the accurate classification of murine hair follicles in distinct hair cycle stages.

TL;DR: This guide should become a useful tool when screening new mouse mutants or mice treated with pharmaceuticals for discrete morphologic abnormalities of hair follicle cycling in a highly reproducible, easily applicable, and quantifiable manner.
