Human gingival mesenchymal stem cells retain their growth and immunomodulatory characteristics independent of donor age

Abstract Aging has been reported to deteriorate the quantity and quality of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which affect their therapeutic use in regenerative medicine. A dearth of age-related stem cell research further restricts their clinical applications. The present study explores…

Macro- and micro-nutrient–based multiplex stress conditions modulate in vitro tumorigenesis and aggressive behavior of breast cancer spheroids

Abstract PurposeThe aggressive nature of a tumor is presumably its inherent one, but different environmental cues can manipulate it in many ways. In this context, the influence of metabolic stresses on tumor behavior needs to be analyzed to understand their…

Hydroxyapatite nanorods loaded with parathyroid hormone (PTH) synergistically enhance the net formative effect of PTH anabolic therapy

Abstract Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been a major contributor to the anabolic therapy for osteoporosis, but its delivery to bone without losing activity and avoiding adverse local effects remain a challenge. Being the natural component of bone, use of hydroxyapatite…
