variability of isolated human islets and the need for lifelong immunosuppression. Different approaches using stem cells to support islet survival and function are being explored in preclinical and clinical settings ( 5 ). Now, the most advanced strategies to

capacity of rodent adrenal capsule nearly 80 years ago ( 4 ), the exact in vivo identity of adrenocortical stem cells (ACSCs) remains elusive. Adult mesenchymal stromal or stem cells (MSCs) have drawn significant interest among researchers in the stem

Introduction Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is increasingly used for the treatment of both malignant and nonmalignant diseases. Survival after autologous/allogeneic HSCT is no longer the highest concern, as many patients

Introduction Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for children with life-threatening hematological and immunological diseases, including high-risk leukemias, but late effects are becoming prevalent

muscle stem cells’, have a remarkable ability to regenerate after muscle injury and are responsible for compensation of muscle turnover caused by daily wear and tear. In this study, we expand our previous results and conclusions ( 11 , 12 ) by now

absent ACTH action contribute to the expansion of the stem cell niche in the adrenal gland, in keeping with some of the data described above. Treatment of WT control mice with glucocorticoid resulted in biochemically undetectable plasma ACTH coupled with

Introduction Fertility in males is dependent on the presence of a germ cell population that is capable of developing into sperm in adulthood. However, the ability of spermatogonial stem cells (SSC) to give rise to sperm is dependent on the
