Embryonic Stem Cells

32.4K
Embryonic stem (ES) cells are undifferentiated pluripotent cells, meaning they can produce any cell type in the body. This gives them tremendous potential in science and medicine since they can generate specific cell types for use in research or to replace body cells lost due to damage or disease.

Embryonic Stem Cells

5.0K
Embryonic stem (ES) cells were first discovered in mice in 1981 by Martin Evans. In 1998, James Thomson identified a method to isolate embryonic stem cells from humans. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are obtained from 3-5 day old embryos that remain unused after an in vitro fertilization procedure.
ES cells are grown in a culture medium where they can divide indefinitely, creating ES cell lines. Under certain conditions, ES cells can differentiate, either spontaneously into a variety of...

Neural Regulation

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Measurement: Derived Units

55.2K
The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

Neural Circuits

2.8K
Neural circuits and neuronal pools are two of the main structures found in the nervous system. Neural circuits are networks of neurons that work together to carry out a specific task or process. They consist of interconnected neurons and glial cells, which provide structural and metabolic support.
Neuronal pools are collections of nerve cells with similar functions and interact through chemical and electrical signals. These pools include both interneurons (the central neural circuit nodes that...

Higher Derivatives01:29

Higher Derivatives

In calculus, higher-order derivatives extend the idea of differentiation beyond the first derivative to capture successive rates of change. These derivatives provide detailed information about the behavior of functions and have important applications in both mathematics and physics. To illustrate these concepts, consider the example functionwhich serves as a useful case study for exploring higher derivatives.The first derivative represents the slope of the original function. The second...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric oncology
  • Developmental biology
  • Cancer research

Background:

  • Neuroblastoma is a common and lethal pediatric malignancy derived from neural crest cells.
  • It exhibits significant clinical heterogeneity, ranging from spontaneous regression to aggressive metastatic disease.
  • The precise origins and developmental pathways leading to neuroblastoma remain incompletely understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the factors and processes within the neural crest that initiate or drive neuroblastoma development.
  • To highlight the need for a deeper biological understanding of neuroblastoma's cell of origin and causes.
  • To inform the development of targeted therapies and strategies to combat treatment resistance.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on neural crest development and neuroblastoma pathogenesis.
  • Analysis of dysregulated factors and cellular processes implicated in neuroblastoma initiation.
  • Discussion of biological insights relevant to therapeutic development.

Main Results:

  • Identified dysregulated neural crest factors and processes as potential initiators of neuroblastoma.
  • Highlighted the heterogeneity of neuroblastoma, complicating treatment strategies.
  • Emphasized the link between developmental origins and treatment resistance.

Conclusions:

  • A comprehensive understanding of neuroblastoma's cell of origin and developmental drivers is essential.
  • This knowledge is critical for designing novel therapeutics targeting neuroblastoma cells.
  • Further research into these mechanisms may elucidate pathways underlying treatment resistance.
