Epiblast-specific loss of HCF-1 leads to failure in anterior-posterior axis specification

Daniel Constam

Mammalian Host-Cell Factor 1 (HCF-1), a transcriptional co-regulator, plays important roles during the cell-division cycle in cell culture, embryogenesis as well as adult tissue. In mice, HCF-1 is encoded by the X-chromosome-linked Hcfc1 gene. Induced Hcfc ...

Murine ovarian follicle culture in PEG-hydrogel: Effects of mechanical properties and the hormones FSH and LH on development

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

The development of an in vitro culture system, comparable to the in vivo environment in terms of effects on oocyte growth and development, could provide a valuable experimental tool for studying the mechanisms governing oocyte development as well as practi ...

Ovary-specific depletion of the nuclear receptor Nr5a2 compromises expansion of the cumulus oophorus but not fertilization by intracytoplasmic sperm injection

Kristina Schoonjans

The orphan nuclear receptor, liver receptor homolog-1 (aka Nuclear receptor subfamily 5, Group A, Member 2 (Nr5a2)), is widely expressed in mammalian tissues, and its ovarian expression is restricted to granulosa cells of activated follicles. We employed t ...

Pancreatic α- and β-Cellular Clocks Have Distinct Molecular Properties and Impact on Islet Hormone Secretion and Gene Expression

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Cédric Gobet

A critical role of circadian oscillators in orchestrating insulin secretion and islet gene transcription has been demonstrated recently. However, these studies focused on whole islets and did not explore the interplay between α-cell and β-cell clocks. We p ...

Culture of preantral follicles in poly(ethylene) glycol-based, three-dimensional hydrogel: a relationship between swelling ratio and follicular developments

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

This study was undertaken to examine how the softness of poly(ethylene) glycol (PEG)-based hydrogels, creating a three-dimensional (3D) microenvironment, influences the in vitro growth of mouse ovarian follicles. Early secondary, preantral follicles of 2we ...

Local induction of lymphangiogenesis with engineered fibrin-binding VEGF-C promotes wound healing by increasing immune cell trafficking and matrix remodeling

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser

Lymphangiogenesis occurs in inflammation and wound healing, yet its functional roles in these processes are not fully understood. Consequently, clinically relevant strategies for therapeutic lymphangiogenesis remain underdeveloped, particularly using growt ...

Elucidating the role of lymphatic vessels within the tumor microenvironment of breast cancer

Ingrid Maria van Mier

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, with an estimated 1.7 million newly diagnosed cases in 2012. Despite the many clinical manifestations, metastatic disease is the main cause of death, and is responsible for 90% of all breast cance ...

Endocrine hormones and local signals during the development of the mouse mammary gland

Cathrin Brisken, Dalya Ataca

Most of mammary gland development occurs postnatally under the control of female reproductive hormones, which in turn interact with other endocrine factors. While hormones impinge on many tissues and trigger very complex biological responses, tissue recomb ...

A Preclinical Model for ERα-Positive Breast Cancer Points to the Epithelial Microenvironment as Determinant of Luminal Phenotype and Hormone Response

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Valentina Scabia, Rachel Marcone, Laura Battista, Valérian Charles Robert Dormoy

Seventy-five percent of breast cancers are estrogen receptor α positive (ER(+)). Research on these tumors is hampered by lack of adequate in vivo models; cell line xenografts require non-physiological hormone supplements, and patient-derived xenografts (PD ...

Progesterone and Overlooked Endocrine Pathways in Breast Cancer Pathogenesis

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Cathrin Brisken, Rachel Marcone

Worldwide, breast cancer incidence has been increasing for decades. Exposure to reproductive hormones, as occurs with recurrent menstrual cycles, affects breast cancer risk, and can promote disease progression. Exogenous hormones and endocrine disruptors h ...

Lymphotoxin-Dependent B Cell-FRC Crosstalk Promotes De Novo Follicle Formation and Antibody Production following Intestinal Helminth Infection

Nicola Harris, Lalit Kumar Dubey, Ilaria Mosconi, Luc Xavier Marie Lebon

Secondary lymphoid tissues provide specialized niches for the initiation of adaptive immune responses and undergo a remarkable expansion in response to inflammatory stimuli. Although the formation of B cell follicles was previously thought to be restricted ...
