Co-isolation of human donor eye cells and development of oncogene-mutated melanocytes to study uveal melanoma.
BMC Biol
January 2025
Cancer Research Program, Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre, Montreal, QC, Canada.
Background: Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common intraocular tumor in adults, arises either de novo from normal choroidal melanocytes (NCMs) or from pre-existing nevi that stem from NCMs and are thought to harbor UM-initiating mutations, most commonly in GNAQ or GNA11. However, there are no commercially available NCM cell lines, nor is there a detailed protocol for developing an oncogene-mutated CM line (MutCM) to study UM development. This study aimed to establish and characterize premalignant CM models from human donor eyes to recapitulate the cell populations at the origin of UM.

Faculty of Biology, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, Mainz, Germany.
Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is characterized by its cellular complexity, with a microenvironment consisting of diverse cell types, including oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and neoplastic CD133 + radial glia-like cells. This study focuses on exploring the distinct cellular transitions in GBM, emphasizing the role of alternative polyadenylation (APA) in modulating microRNA-binding and post-transcriptional regulation.
Results: Our research identified unique APA profiles that signify the transitional phases between neoplastic cells and OPCs, underscoring the importance of APA in cellular identity and transformation in GBM.
Small extracellular vesicles derived from sequential stimulation of canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells enhance anti-inflammatory activity.

Center of Excellence for Veterinary Clinical Stem Cells and Bioengineering, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, 10330, Thailand.
Background: Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are recognized for their therapeutic potential in immune modulation and tissue repair, especially in veterinary medicine. This study introduces an innovative sequential stimulation (IVES) technique, involving low-oxygen gas mixture preconditioning using in vitro fertilization gas (IVFG) and direct current electrical stimulation (ES20), to enhance the anti-inflammatory properties of sEVs from canine adipose-derived MSCs (cAD-MSCs). Initial steps involved isolation and comprehensive characterization of cAD-MSCs, including morphology, gene expression, and differentiation potentials, alongside validation of the electrical stimulation protocol.

Background: Spermatogonia are essential for the continual production of sperm and regeneration of the entire spermatogenic lineage after injury. In mammals, spermatogonia are formed in the neonatal testis from prospermatogonia (also termed gonocytes), which are established from primordial germ cells during fetal development. Currently, the molecular regulation of the prospermatogonial to spermatogonia transition is not fully understood.

The heterogeneity and evolution of tumors remain significant obstacles in cancer treatment, contributing to both therapy resistance and relapse. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal cells within the tumor microenvironment that interact with tumor cells through various mechanisms, including cell fusion. While previous research has largely focused on the effects of MSC-tumor cell fusion on tumor proliferation, migration, and tumorigenicity, emerging evidence indicates that its role in tumor maintenance, evolution, and recurrence, particularly under stress conditions, may be even more pivotal.
