In reality, the long-term survival of dental implants remains a health concern, based on their short-term predicted survival of ~15 years, significant potential for jawbone resorption, and risk of peri-implantitis. The ability to create functional bioengineered teeth, composed of living tissues with properties similar to those of natural teeth, would be a significant improvement over currently used synthetic titanium implants. To address this possibility, our research has focused on creating biological tooth substitutes. The study presented here validates a potentially clinically relevant bioengineered tooth replacement therapy for eventual use in humans. We created bioengineered tooth buds by seeding decellularized tooth bud (dTB) extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds with human dental pulp cells, porcine tooth bud-derived dental epithelial cells, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The resulting bioengineered tooth bud constructs were implanted in the mandibles of adult Yucatan minipigs and grown for 2 or 4 months. We observed the formation of tooth-like tissues, including tooth-supporting periodontal ligament tissues, in cell-seeded dTB ECM constructs. This preclinical translational study validates this approach as a potential clinically relevant alternative to currently used dental implants.</p>","PeriodicalId":21986,"journal":{"name":"Stem Cells Translational Medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11878782/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142898300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These epigenetic modifications can affect the capacity of hematopoietic cells to self-renew or differentiate, which can lead to transformation. Aberrant histone modifications contribute to the derepression of self-renewal genes such as HOXA/B and MEIS1 in committed hematopoietic progenitors, which is considered a key mechanism of leukemogenesis in MLL-rearranged (MLL-r) and NPM1-mutated AML. As regulators of some of the key histone modifications in this disease, the menin-KMT2A and polycomb repressive (PRC1/2) complexes have been identified as promising targets for the treatment of AML. This review explores recent discoveries of how leukemic cells hijack these complexes and their interactions with other chromatin regulators to promote disease progression.

Pulmonary hypoplasia results from several conditions including congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and oligohydramnios. Both entities have high morbidity and mortality, and no effective therapy that fully restores normal lung development. Hypoplastic lungs have impaired growth (arrested branching morphogenesis), maturation (decreased epithelial/mesenchymal differentiation), and vascularization (endothelial dysfunction and vascular remodeling leading to postnatal pulmonary hypertension). Herein, we discuss the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypoplasia and the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) during normal and pathological lung development. Since multiple cells and pathways are altered, the ideal strategy for hypoplastic lungs is to deliver a therapy that addresses all aspects of abnormal lung development. In this review, we report on a novel regenerative approach based on the administration of extracellular vesicles derived from amniotic fluid stem cells (AFSC-EVs). Specifically, we describe the effects of AFSC-EVs in rodent and human models of pulmonary hypoplasia, their mechanism of action via release of their cargo, including miRNAs, and their anti-inflammatory properties. We also compare cargo contents and regenerative effects of EVs from AFSCs and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). Overall, there is compelling evidence that antenatal administration of AFSC-EVs rescues multiple features of fetal lung development in experimental models of pulmonary hypoplasia. Lastly, we discuss the steps that need to be taken to translate this promising EV-based therapy from the bench to the bedside. These include strategies to overcome barriers commonly associated with EV therapeutics and specific challenges related to stem cell-based therapies in fetal medicine.</p>","PeriodicalId":21986,"journal":{"name":"Stem Cells Translational Medicine","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11740888/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143056039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
