Mesenchymal stem cells: why optimizing manufacturing processes is key for a successful application
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the up-and-coming stars of cell therapy. They are able to differentiate, are very adaptable and can reduce inflammation, making them ideal for regenerative medicine approaches. But the demand for MSCs is far greater than supply. Pharmaceutical companies are racing to produce commercial-scale quantities of MSCs while guaranteeing quality standards….

Trouble With Your Primary Cells? Treat Them Nicely!
What seems basic to cell culturing is pure stress for primary cells: thawing, subcultivation and freezing. Even seasoned scientists tend to overlook this aspect, and manipulate their cultures less carefully than they should. Unhealthy, or even dead cells are the sad consequence. Here, you can benefit from an expert’s tips in handling primary cells,…

Extracellular vesicles in cancer therapy
EVs in tumor development Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, play a crucial role in tumor biology. Alongside modulating the tumor microenvironment and contributing to the malignant cascade (angiogenesis, the host immune system response, and metastasis), EVs are involved in chemoresistance. Docetaxel in prostate cancer, for example, may transport mRNA encoding drug-resistant proteins or carry miRNA to recipient cells and trigger the expression of specific target genes….
