Effect of vasopressin, oxytocin and LHRH (10 and 20 pg/ml medium) on the proliferation and metabolism of cultured rat bone marrow stromal cells was investigated by methyl-3H-thymidine incorporation, cytochemistry and estimation of enzyme activities. Vasopressin did not change of the activity of tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (4HFDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and the level of reduced glutathione (GSH). However, the higher concentration of vasopressin significantly lowered the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AchE). As compared with the control cultures, stromal cells grown in the presence of oxytocin showed higher (at lower hormone concentration) and lower (at higher concentration) LDH activity as well as lower G6PD activity (only at higher concentration), while the activity of AchE and the level of GSH was not changed. LHRH significantly increased G6PD and AchE activity and decreased LDH activity in the cultured cells. As revealed by cytochemistry, LHRH specifically enhanced 4HFDH activity in reticular cells.

The objective of this study was to tailor an osteoinductive scaffold for alveolar bone regeneration and around immediately placed implants in extraction sockets of dogs. Tailored amorphous multiporous bioactive glass (TAMP -BG) was prepared and characterized for bioactivity and response of human alveolar bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hABMSCs). Extraction sockets of twenty-two male mongrel dogs received TAMP-BG in the right side around implant in the distal socket of the mandibular fourth premolar (P4), while the adjacent empty mesial socket of the same tooth was filled with the same graft.

Plp1-lineage Schwann cells (SCs) of peripheral nerve play a critical role in vascular remodeling and osteogenic differentiation during the early stage of bone healing, and the abnormal plasticity of SCs would jeopardize the bone regeneration. However, how Plp1-lineage cells respond to injury and initiate the vascularized osteogenesis remains incompletely understood. Here, by employing single-cell transcriptional profiling combined with lineage-specific tracing models, we uncover that Plp1-lineage cells undergoing injury-induced glia-to-MSCs transition contributed to osteogenesis and revascularization in the initial stage of bone injury.

Given the pivotal role of the Eph-Ephrin signaling pathway in tumor progression, agonists or antagonists targeting Eph/Ephrin have emerged as promising anticancer strategies. However, the implications of glycosylation modifications within Eph/Ephrin and their targeted protein therapeutics remain elusive. Here, we identify that N-glycosylation within the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of ephrin B1 (EFNB1) is indispensable for its functional repertoire.

Diabetic wounds are characterized by chronic inflammation, reduced angiogenesis, and insufficient collagen deposition, leading to impaired healing. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC) offer a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy, yet their efficacy and immunomodulation can be enhanced through bioactivation. In this study, we developed calcium silicate (CS)-stimulated ADSC-derived EVs (CSEV) incorporated into collagen hydrogels to create a sustained-release system for promoting diabetic wound healing.

Background: Asthma is a prevalent respiratory disease, and its management remains largely unsatisfactory. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been demonstrated to be efficacious in reducing airway inflammation in experimental allergic diseases, representing a potential alternative treatment for asthma. Migrasomes are recently identified extracellular vesicles (EVs) generated in migrating cells and facilitate intercellular communication.
