Graphene coating exhibits excellent abilities of protein adsorption and cell adhesion, which might expand the osteogenic activity of titanium implant surface to adapt to the environment of low bone mass and poor bone quality. In this paper, we designed and explored the graphene-coated titanium sheet, through the surface modification of oxygen-containing functional groups, to optimize the adsorption capacity of material by improving the electrostatic interactions, and successfully adsorbed and sustained-released a variety of osteogenic related growth factors in the autologous concentrated growth factors. Compared with the pure titanium, we observed that the bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) on the graphene-coated titanium with concentrated growth factors showed a flat shape and expressed osteogenic related genes and proteins, while the coating surfaces promoted and accelerated the osteogenic differentiation ability of BMSCs. The results suggested that it might be a feasible alternative to improve the osteogenesis of dental implant in the early stage.

Objective: Both the Masquelet technique (MT) and concentrated growth factors (CGF) reduce early graft loss and improve bone regeneration. This study aims to explore the efficacy of combining MT with CGF for mandibular defect repair by characterizing the induced membrane and assessing in vivo osteogenesis.
Materials And Methods: Three experimental groups were compared: negative control (NC), MT, and Masquelet combined with CGF (MTC).

Background: TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors that play essential roles in various developmental processes, including leaf morphogenesis and senescence, flowering, lateral branching, hormone crosstalk, and stress responses. However, a comprehensive analysis of genome-wide TCP genes and their expression patterns in melon is yet to be done.
Objective: The present study aims to identify and analyze the TCP genes in the melon genome and understand their putative functions.
Cellular senescence in the tumor with a bone niche microenvironment: friend or foe?

Cellular senescence is understood to be a biological process that is defined as irreversible growth arrest and was originally recognized as a tumor-suppressive mechanism that prevents further propagation of damaged cells. More recently, cellular senescence has been shown to have a dual role in prevention and tumor promotion. Senescent cells carry a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which is altered by secretory factors including pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and other proteases, leading to the alteration of the tissue microenvironment.

Early T-cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ETP-ALL) is an immature subtype of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) commonly show deregulation of the LMO2-LYL1 stem cell transcription factors, activating mutations of cytokine receptor signaling, and poor early response to intensive chemotherapy. Previously, studies of the Lmo2 transgenic mouse model of ETP-ALL identified a population of stem-like T-cell progenitors with long-term self-renewal capacity and intrinsic chemotherapy resistance linked to cellular quiescence. Here, analyses of Lmo2 transgenic mice, patient-derived xenografts, and single-cell RNA-sequencing data from primary ETP-ALL identified a rare subpopulation of leukemic stem cells expressing high levels of the cytokine receptor FLT3.
