Sparks NR (2018) The embryotoxic effects of harm reduction tobacco products on osteoblasts developing from human embryonic stem cells. University of California Riverside Thesis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of maternal smoking in the development of embryonic skeleton and the molecular mechanisms involved in skeletal embryotoxicity induced by conventional and harm-reduction tobacco.

Summary: An in vitro model based on human embryonic stem cells was developed, that mimics the development of the human embryo; their differentiation into osteoblasts in vitro can be used to study chemical toxicity and the molecular mechanisms thereof. Tobacco-induced oxidative stress disrupts osteogenic differentiation in human embryonic stem cells.

Sánchez-Migallón MC, Valiente-Soriano FJ, Nadal-Nicolás FM, Di Pierdomenico J, Vidal-Sanz M, Agudo-Barriuso M (2018) Survival of melanopsin expressing retinal ganglion cells long term after optic nerve trauma in mice. Exp Eye Res 174:93-97. doi: 10.1016/j.exer.2018.05.029 PMID: 29856984

Summary: Melanopsin-positive retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) do not respond to axotomy in the same way than the rest of RGCs, and so while image-forming RGCs die in two exponential phases, non-image forming RGCs die only during the first quick phase.

Usage: Retinas were dissected as flat mounts and double-immunostained against melanopsin (1:5000).

Objective: To describe methods for the direct conversion of mouse embryonic fibroblasts into neural crest cells (NCCs).

Summary: Sox10-IRES-Venus mouse fibroblasts were used for the conversion and isolation of converted NCCs as SOX10-positive cells.

Objective: To improve the traditional methods for inducing the differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) into Schwann cell-like cells (SCLCs).

Tata A, Kobayashi Y, Chow RD, Tran J, Desai A, Massri AJ, McCord TJ, Gunn MD, Tata PR (2018) Myoepithelial cells of submucosal glands can function as reserve stem cells to regenerate airways after injury. Cell Stem Cell 22:668-683. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2018.03.018 PMID: 29656943

Objective: To show that myoepithelial cells (MECs) of the submucosal glands (SMGs) proliferate and migrate to repopulate the airway surface epithelium (SE) in multiple injury models.

Summary: SMG-like cells appear on the SE of extra-and intra-lobular airways of large animal lungs following severe injury. The transcription factor SOX9 is necessary for MEC plasticity in airway regeneration.

Lynch TJ, Anderson PJ, Rotti PG, Tyler SR, Crooke AK, Choi SH, Montoro DT, Silverman CL, Shahin W, Zhao R, Jensen-Cody CW, Adamcakova-Dodd A, Evans TIA, Xie W, Zhang Y, Mou H, Herring BP, Thorne PS, Rajagopal J, Yeaman C, Parekh KR, Engelhardt JF (2018) Submucosal gland myoepithelial cells are reserve stem cells that can regenerate mouse tracheal epithelium. Cell Stem Cell 22(5):653-667.e5. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2018.03.017 PMID: 29656941

Objective: To investigate whether a lineage relationship exists between two stem cell compartments that contribute to airway repair – basal cells in the surface airway epithelium (SAE) and an unknown submucosal gland (SMG) celltype.

Summary: Using lineage tracing of glandular myoepithelial cells (MECs), they demonstrate that MECs can give rise to seven cell types of the SAE and SMGs following severe airway injury. MECs progressively adopted a basal cell phenotype on the SAE and established asting progenitors capable of further regeneration following reinjury. MECs activate Wnt-regulated transcription factors (Lef-1/TCF7) following injury and Lef-1 induction in cultured MECs promoted transition to a basal cell phenotype. Surprisingly, dose-dependent MEC conditional activation of Lef-1in vivo promoted self-limited airway regeneration in the absence of injury.

Objective: The aim of this study is to identify specific markers for embryonic Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

Summary: ITGA8 is a specific cell surface marker of MC-derived HSCs and perivascular mesenchymal cells in the developing liver. Our data suggest that ITGA8+ mesenchymal cells maintain the phenotype of hepatoblast in liver development.

Objective: To quantify the effects of chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) on AT1R- and AT2R-like immunoreactivity in the rostroventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN), central regions that are important components of the extended chemoreflex pathway.

Summary: Exposure to CIH of at least 5 days duration augmented AT1R-like immunoreactivity in RVLM. In contrast, CIH exposure did not affect AT2R-like reactivity in RVLM or that of either Ang II receptor subtype in PVN.

Usage: Immunoreactivity, immunostaining. For immunoreactivity assays, antibodies were diluted in the blocking solution with 0.05% sodium azide at the following concentrations: AT-1R, (1:1600) and AT-2R, (1:5000).
