Mutated cells drive out early tumours from the oesophagus

October 20, 2021 Comments Off on Mutated cells drive out early tumours from the oesophagus

Cells carrying mutations can out compete early tumors in the mouse esophagus, so they never make it into cancers, new research has shown. Normal human esophagus is a patchwork of cells containing mutations, known as

Discovery of aging mechanism for hematopoietic stem cells

December 24, 2020 Comments Off on Discovery of aging mechanism for hematopoietic stem cells

By transferring mouse aged hematopoietic stem cells (aged HSCs) to the environment of young mice (bone marrow niche), it was demonstrated that the pattern of stem cell gene expression was rejuvenated to that of young
