Singapore and Japan researchers found that aged blood stem cells with high mitochondria stay regenerative, not exhausted.
They identified GPR183 as a key marker, revealing new insights into stem cell aging

(1/4) In recognition of #HeartMonth, join SCN’s Joanna Valsamis as she chats with biomedical engineering expert Dr. Sara Vasconcelos (University Health Network, Toronto) about cutting-edge stem cell research for heart disease—a leading cause of death and disability in Canada.
Our NIH funded lab is developing research tools for the study of biological vascular aging. One tool is the development of pluripotent stem cells from young and older adults’ peripheral blood.
Here’s some of our recent work: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
🧪 Scientists at @kidney-resrch-inst.bsky.social used human kidney #organoids to test a potential new treatment for polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a currently incurable disorder. Paper by Gulieva, Ahmadvand, & Freedman in @isscr.org Stem Cell Reports: www.cell.com/stem-cell-re...
Long-lived plants and animals clearly regulate their physiology according to seasonal changes in day length to appropriately adjust their physiology. A new study shows that cyanobacteria can do the same even though individuals only live for a few hours. #Science

Excited to share this collaboration with @tcuellargaviria.bsky.social, @nhc-nanomedlab.bsky.social, and Dan Wozniak showing the potential of our Tissue Nano-Transfection (#TNT) technology and tissue-derived extracellular vesicles to combat biofilm infections.

SARS-CoV-2 Envelope Protein Generates Unique Extracellular Vesicles, which appear to be an important mechanism helping SARS-CoV-2 to facilitate its spread, replicate efficiently, and evade host immune responses

So, it turns out one of our favourite extracellular vesicle lipid raft proteins, Flotillin-1 (FLOT1), is actually shaped like a basket 🧺
