NSPc1 promotes cancer stem cell self-renewal by repressing the synthesis of all-trans retinoic acid via targeting RDH16 in malignant glioma
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins play an important role in development and stem cell maintenance, and their dysregulation have been closely linked to oncogenesis and cancer stem cell phenotypes. Here, we found th...

Hepatocyte growth factor-modified mesenchymal stem cells improve ischemia/reperfusion-induced acute lung injury in rats
Accumulative evidence demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) engraftment could protect tissue injury from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has important roles in the cell and t...
