Characterization of the gut-bone marrow axis through bile acid signaling

Alejandro Alonso Calleja

Communication between the intestine and other organs such as the lungs, brain or bones is mediated by several metabolites, like short-chain fatty acids or bile acids, that relay information about nutritional and microbiota status. Bile acids are endogenous ...

An autologous antigen-agnostic dendritic cell therapy that forgoes antigen loading

Michele De Palma

We developed a method for generating dendritic cell progenitors (DCPs) from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells isolated from bone marrow or blood. When engineered to express IL-12 and FLT3L, these DCPs reprogram the tumor microenvironment and elicit a ...

Disruption of stem cell niche-confined R-spondin 3 expression leads to impaired hematopoiesis

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch

Self-renewal and differentiation of stem and progenitor cells are tightly regulated to ensure tissue homeostasis. This regulation is enabled both remotely by systemic circulating cues, such as cytokines and hormones, and locally by various niche-confined f ...

Exploring the interplay of molecular pattern and valency for selective interactions at the bio-interface

Kaltrina Paloja

Cell-cell communication is fundamental for immune balance. Multivalent interactions of surface receptors at immune interfaces drive specific communication, with stimulatory and inhibitory signals guiding the immune outcome. Notably, the valency, affinity, ...

Inhibition of SRC-mediated integrin signaling in bone marrow niche enhances hematopoietic stem cell function

Jörg Hülsken

Interaction with microenvironmental factors is crucial for the regulation of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function. Stroma derived factor (SDF)-1 alpha supports HSCs in the quiescent state and is central to the homing of transplanted HSCs. Here, we show t ...

New approaches to uncover the minimally functional hematopoietic niche using the adipocytic differentiation axis: pharmacological modulation and adrenal niche induction

Frédérica Schyrr

Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) reside in their niche, a structure that regulates the balance of cellular quiescence, self-renewal and commitment towards differentiated cells. This highly plastic niche is formed by several cellular players, ...

PEG/HA Hybrid Hydrogels for Biologically and Mechanically Tailorable Bone Marrow Organoids

Nicolas Antoine Vincent Broguiere, Queralt Vallmajó Martín

Bone marrow (BM) organoids provide powerful tools to study the vital interplay between the BM microenvironment and resident cells. Current biomaterials, however, are limited in terms of versatility for independently studying the biochemical and biophysical ...

Durable and controlled depletion of neutrophils in mice

Etienne Meylan, Julien Robert Rémi Faget, Gael Luis Boivin, Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat, Aspasia Gkasti, Pierre-Benoit Bernard Ancey, Justine Pascual, Jessica Christine Vazquez

Neutrophils are an essential part of the innate immune system. To study their importance, experimental studies often aim to deplete these cells, generally by injecting anti-Ly6G or anti-Gr1 antibodies. However, these approaches are only partially effective ...

Quantitative approaches to unravel bone marrow adipocyte site-specificity and its implication in hematopoiesis

Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal

Over the last decade, bone marrow (BM) adipose tissue (BMAT) has emerged as a distinct adipose depot with unique metabolic properties and effects both in homeostasis and in the progression of disease. We provide a first comprehensive review of existing an ...

MarrowQuantAcross Aging and Aplasia: A Digital Pathology Workflow for Quantification of Bone Marrow Compartments in Histological Sections

Nicolas Kunz, Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Olivier Burri, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Rita Sarkis, Frédérica Schyrr, Shanti Rojas-Sutterlin, Daniel Naveed Tavakol

The bone marrow (BM) exists heterogeneously as hematopoietic/red or adipocytic/yellow marrow depending on skeletal location, age, and physiological condition. Mouse models and patients undergoing radio/chemotherapy or suffering acute BM failure endure rapi ...

Programmable microencapsulation for enhanced mesenchymal stem cell persistence and immunomodulation

Berna Ayse Özkale Edelmann, Christina Myra Tringides

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapies demonstrate particular promise in ameliorating diseases of immune dysregulation but are hampered by short in vivo cell persistence and inconsistencies in phenotype. Here, we demonstrate that biomaterial encapsulation i ...

Metabolic and microenvironmental strategies to accelerate hematopoietic recovery post-aplasia

Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos

The procedure-associated mortality rate of bone marrow transplantations (BMT) remains close to 25%. The BMT is therefore only indicated for life-threatening diseases, with no replacement of this technology to be expected in the foreseeable future. Modest i ...

Sequential Bone-Marrow Cell Delivery of VEGFA/S1P Improves Vascularization and Limits Adverse Cardiac Remodeling After Myocardial Infarction in Mice

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito

Microvascular dysfunction and resulting tissue hypoxia is a major contributor to the pathogenesis and evolution of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Diverse gene and cell therapies have been proposed to preserve the microvasculature or boost angiogenesis in C ...

Modeling hematopoietic stem cell dynamics in bioengineered niches

Sonja Giger

Bone marrow transplantation is a well-established medical procedure for the treatment of various hematologic diseases. However, the relatively low number of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) that can be harvested, especially from umbilical cord blood, limits ...

The pro-apoptotic effect of a Terpene-rich Annona cherimola leaf extract on leukemic cell lines

Rita Sarkis

Background The edible fruit Annona cherimola has previously shown many nutritional and medicinal properties. The current study evaluates the anti-cancer and anti-proliferative properties of Annona cherimola ethanolic leaf extract (AELE) on Acute Myeloid Le ...

Bioengineering human bone marrow models to elucidate the triggers of the stem cell niche

Queralt Vallmajó Martín

The bone marrow (BM) microenvironment, or niche, significantly affects behaviors of its resident stem cell populations. Disruptions in the BM niche contribute to a number of severe clinical pathologies. Discovery of novel therapeutic strategies for BM-rela ...

Quantitative telomeric chromatin isolation protocol for human cells

Joachim Lingner, Jana Majerská, Sophie Redon

The ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, known as telomeres, consist of repetitive DNA sequences, multiple proteins and noncoding RNAs. Telomeres are dynamic structures that play crucial roles as guardians of genome stability and tumor suppressors. Defects in t ...

Targeting macrophages sensitizes chronic lymphocytic leukemia to apoptosis and inhibits disease progression

Michele De Palma

The role of monocytes/macrophages in the development and progression of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is poorly understood. Transcriptomic analyses show that monocytes/macrophages and leukemic cells cross talk during CLL progression. Macrophage deplet ...
