A review of one of the key problems of experimental hematology: the origin of hemopoietic stem cells in the development of vertebrates (amphibians, birds, and mammals). The appearance and functioning of two independent sources of hemopoietic stem cells (extra- and intraembryonic) were considered in amphibians, birds, and mammals. The contribution of each source to the formation of definitive hemopoietic tissue was analyzed. It was shown for amphibians and birds that intraembryonic organs such as the dorsolateral plate and the mesenchyme of dorsal aorta are involved in the formation of adult hemopoietic tissue, while the extraembryonic organs such as ventral islets and the yolk sac are devoid of true stem cells and provide only for the primary, transient hemopoiesis. New data have been considered concerning the previously unknown intraembryonic hemopoietic organ in mammals, a region of aorta-gonad-mesonephros arising in embryogenesis simultaneously with the yolk sac. Two extreme views on the involvement of stem cells of all these organs in the formation of definitive hemopoiesis have been considered. The data are provided on the interaction of the embryonic hemopoietic stem cells and the hemopoietic microenvironment of adult recipients.

Introduction: Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have shown promise in reducing amyloid precursor protein (APP) levels in neurons, but their effects in astrocytes, key contributors to neurodegenerative diseases, remain unclear. This study evaluates the efficacy of APP ASOs in astrocytes derived from an individual with Down syndrome (DS), a population at high risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Methods: Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from a healthy individual and an individual with DS were differentiated into astrocytes.

Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a debilitating developmental disorder characterized by a variety of clinical manifestations. While benign tumors in the heart, lungs, kidney, and brain are all hallmarks of the disease, the most severe symptoms of TSC are often neurological, including seizures, autism, psychiatric disorders, and intellectual disabilities. TSC is caused by loss of function mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes and consequent dysregulation of signaling via mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1).

Activation of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 4 signaling promotes the survival of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) after acute injury. In this study, we investigated the role of the BMP4 signaling pathway in regulating the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in a mouse glaucoma model and its potential application in retinal stem cell. Our results demonstrate that BMP4-GPX4 not only reduces oxidative stress and iron accumulation but also promotes neuroprotective factors that support the survival of transplanted RSCs into the host retina.

Introduction: Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a very rare disease, with unique diagnostic challenges and often dismal outcome. There are no widely accepted treatment guidelines available. Lymphoma-like regimens with or without autologous or allogenic transplantation were the cornerstone of most therapeutic concepts.
