Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) seeded onto biocompatible scaffolds have been proposed for repairing bone defects. When transplanted in vivo, MSCs (expanded in vitro in 21% O(2)) undergo temporary oxygen deprivation due to the lack of pre-existing blood vessels within these scaffolds. In the present study, the effects of temporary (48 h) exposure to hypoxia (

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), driven by KIT and PDGFRA mutations, are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have advanced treatment, resistance mutations and off-target toxicity limit their efficacy. This study develops covalent TKIs targeting drug-resistant GIST through structure-based design, synthesis, and biological evaluation.

While there is growing evidence highlighting the crucial role of the BM microenvironment (BMME) in MDS, the specific influence of inflammation on BMME changes, as well as the potential benefits of targeting cytokines therapeutically, remain to be elucidated. We previously found interleukin-1 (IL-1) to be a driver of aging phenotypes of BMME and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs).

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are crucial stromal cells in the tumor microenvironment, affecting cancer growth, angiogenesis, and matrix remodeling. Developing an effective in vitro tumor model that accurately recapitulates the dynamic interplay between tumor and stromal cells remains a challenge. In this study, a 3D bioprinted fibroblast - mediated heterogeneous breast tumor model was created, with tumor cells and fibroblasts in a bionic matrix.

Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) remains a leading cause of mortality in critically ill patients. Macrophages, key modulators of immune responses, play a dual role in both promoting and resolving inflammation. Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles released by various cells, carry bioactive molecules that influence macrophage polarization and immune responses.

Introduction: Gastric glomus tumor is a rare submucosal mesenchymal tumor with no distinct features on endoscopy. In clinical practice, it is often treated with laparoscopic partial gastrectomy. Here, we report a case of gastric glomus tumor successfully resected using a combination of gastroscopy and laparoscopy.
