Derivation of clinical-grade human embryonic stem cells.
2006
Embryonic stem cells proliferate in vitro while maintaining an undifferentiated state, and are capable of differentiating into most cell types under appropriate conditions. These properties imply great potential in the treatment of various diseases and disabilities. In fact, the first clinical trials with hESC for treating spinal cord injuries will begin next year. However, therapeutic application of human embryonic stem cell derivatives is compromised by the exposure of existing lines to animal and human components, with the subsequent risk of contamination with retroviruses and other pathogens, which can be transmitted to patients. The scientific community is striving to avoid the use of …
Age-Related Lipid Metabolic Signature in HumanLMNA-Lipodystrophic Stem Cell-Derived Adipocytes
2015
Lamin A (LMNA)-linked lipodystrophies belong to a group of clinical disorders characterized by a redistribution of adipose tissue with a variable range of metabolic complications. The leading cause of these disorders is the nonphysiological accumulation of the lamin A precursor, prelamin A. However, the molecular mechanisms by which prelamin A induces the pathology remain unclear.The aim of this study is to use an experimental LMNA-lipodystrophy model based on human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC)-derived adipocytes that accumulate prelamin A to gain deeper insights into the mechanisms governing these diseases.Prelamin A-induced or -noninduced hMSC-derived adipocytes were obtained from healthy…
Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)
2016
Seuls les 100 premiers auteurs dont les auteurs INRA ont été entrés dans la notice. La liste complète des auteurs et de leurs affiliations est accessible sur la publication.; International audience; In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues…
Sp1 transcription factor interaction with accumulated prelamin a impairs adipose lineage differentiation in human mesenchymal stem cells: essential r…
2012
Abstract Lamin A (LMNA)-linked lipodystrophies may be either genetic (associated with LMNA mutations) or acquired (associated with the use of human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors [PIs]), and in both cases they share clinical features such as anomalous distribution of body fat or generalized loss of adipose tissue, metabolic alterations, and early cardiovascular complications. Both LMNA-linked lipodystrophies are characterized by the accumulation of the lamin A precursor prelamin A. The pathological mechanism by which prelamin A accumulation induces the lipodystrophy associated phenotypes remains unclear. Since the affected tissues in these disorders are of mesenchymal origin, we…
