Neural development requires crosstalk between signaling pathways and chromatin. In this study, we demonstrate that neurogenesis is promoted by an interplay between the TGFM-NM-2 pathway and the H3K27me3 histone demethylase (HDM) JMJD3. Genome-wide analysis showed that JMJD3 is targeted to gene promo...

Several signaling pathways require JMJD3 binding to promoters to activate the expression of target genes. Despite the known H3K27me3 demethylase activity of JMJD3 the transcriptional coactivator mechanism remains unclear. Here we reveal that JMJD3 promotes transcription of TGFb responsive genes thro...

Eighteen independent neurospheres derived from patients affected by primary glioblastoma were grouped into “classical”, “mesenchymal” or “proneural” subtypes according to analysis of genetic lesions and gene expression profiling. Here we show that expression of the MET oncogene, encoding the tyrosin...

Neural stem/progenitor cell (NSPC) proliferation and self-renewal, as well as insult-induced differentiation, decrease markedly with age, but the molecular mechanisms responsible for these declines remain unclear. Here we show that levels of NAD+ and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt), ...

Aims: We explore the role of elevated O2-:H2O2 ratio as a prosurvival signal in glioma-propagating cells (GPCs). We hypothesize that depleting this ratio sensitizes GPCs to apoptotic triggers. Results: We observed that elevated O2-:H2O2 ratio conferred enhanced resistance in GPCs, and depletion of t...

Most patients affected by Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) experience a recurrence of the disease because of the spreading of tumor-initiating cells (TICs) beyond surgical boundary. Unveiling and targeting molecular mechanisms causing this process is a logic goal to impair GBM killing ability. In an or...

Glioblastoma, the most common and malignant brain tumor, harbors stem-like cells that self-renew and propagate upon serial transplantation. Although they share functional, morphological and developmental similarities to adult brain neural stem cells, stem cell characteristic pathways contributing to...

CD24 is the one of cell surface protein that anchored via glycosyl phosphatidylinositol that links to cell surface and modulates growth and differentiation signal many of cell types. A small population of cells, namely M-bM-^@M-^XCancer Stem Cells (CSCs)M-bM-^@M-^Y, charges highly aggressive and met...

The purpose of this study was to interrogate the role of EGF-family ligands, in particular Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) and Neuregulin 1 (NRG1), as human intestinal stem cell niche factors. An established duodenal enteroid line derived from a 20.2 week post conception biological specimen was expose...
