Adipose tissue is a rich source of multi-potent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) capable of differentiating into osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. Adipogenic differentiation of progenitor cells is a major mechanism driving adipose tissue expansion and dysfunction in response to obesity.
OBJECTIVE
To study regeneration of damaged human and murine muscle implants and the contribution of added xenogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).
METHODS
Minced human or mouse skeletal muscle tissues were implanted together with human or mouse MSCs subcutaneously on the back of non-obese
The accumulation of adipocytes in bone marrow is common in a variety of pathophysiological conditions, including obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and aging. Adipocytes in bone marrow exhibit severe adverse effect on osteoblast differentiation, proliferation, and function. However, the
Liraglutide, a synthetic analogue of glucagon-like peptide‑1, is utilized in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Liraglutide has been previously demonstrated to prevent osteoblastic differentiation of human vascular smooth muscle cells, resulting in the slowing of arterial calcification,
BACKGROUND
Obesity is associated with a higher risk of developing cancer and co-morbidities that are part of the metabolic syndrome. Adipose tissue is recognized as an endocrine organ, as it affects a number of physiological functions, and contains adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs). ASCs can
Wnt/β-catenin pathway plays an important role in adipogenesis and osteogenesis. To search for novel activators of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, we screened plant extracts and found that Sangusorba officinalis L. extracts (SOE) could increase β-catenin expression level and nuclear accumulation in 3T3-L1
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to determine the potential impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus on left ventricular dysfunction and the development of calcified aortic valve disease using a dyslipidemic mouse model prone to developing type 2 diabetes mellitus.
RESULTS
When compared with nondiabetic
