PDGFRA expression

Mesenchymal deletion of Alms1 recapitulates metabolic features of AS, including fatty liver. This confirms a key role for Alms1 in the adipose lineage, where its loss is sufficient to cause systemic metabolic effects and damage to remote organs. Hyperphagia in females may depend on Alms1 deficiency in oligodendrocyte precursor cells rather than neurones. AS should be regarded as a forme fruste of lipodystrophy.

With inhibition of PDGFRα and PDGFRβ using AG1295 or AG1296, VM formation in gastric cancer cells decreased (P <0.05), but the number of VM structures increased while LOX was added (P < 0.05). LOX partially promotes the formation of VM in gastric cancer through the PDGF-PDGFR signaling pathway.

Furthermore, the intravenous administration of C-Olig2 into a murine model of ischemic stroke not only improved blood-brain barrier integrity but also enhanced remyelination and mitigated learning and cognitive deficits. These results underscore the promising therapeutic potential of multifunctional nanomedicine targeting mRNA expression in the context of ischemic stroke.

Immunostaining and qPCR of spinal cord samples showed decreased oligodendrocyte proteolipid protein and transcription factor Olig2 expression, but no changes in PDGFRα expression. These results suggest astrocyte LCN2 contributes to early events in EAE and reduces damage to mature oligodendrocytes at later times.

Furthermore, level of phospho-STAT3 is higher in normal and cancerous breast tissues of women of African ancestry. PZP cells transformed with HRas ± SV40-T/t antigens generate metaplastic carcinoma suggesting that these cells are one of the cells-of-origin of metaplastic breast cancers.

Indeed, PDGFRα, MBP and MAG expression started earlier in somatosensory than in visual cortex. Taken together, myelination proceeded in white and gray matter and marginal zone of pig cortex before birth with an areal-specific time course, and an almost mature pattern was present at P5 in visual cortex.

These results indicate that maybe there was more severe white-matter damage in the focal cerebral ischemia of the diabetic mice than in the mice with normal blood glucose levels. Long-term sigma-1 receptor activation may promote oligodendrogenesis and white-matter functional recovery in patients with stroke and with diabetes.

Despite PDGF receptor expression, the GBM tumour cells, in contrast to pericytes, surprisingly displayed a lack of responses to ligand stimulation through either PDGFRα or PDGFRβ. This warrants further investigation into the signalling mechanisms behind tumour cells to better understand tumour biology.

Furthermore, inhibition of Sema3A/NRP1 signaling increased the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) score of lower limb motor function in SCI rats and promoted the survival of motor neurons in the ventral horn of the injured spinal cord. Our data suggest that Sema3A/NRP1 signaling may regulate the development of OPCs and OLs after SCI, thereby affecting functional recovery.

As there was a significant decrease in PDGFRβ area following ligation injury in the absence of Gli1 function, Gli1 signaling may stimulate PDGFRβ expression. Our results suggest that although Gli1 signaling and Gli1 cells do not significantly contribute to injury-induced fibrosis in the salivary gland; PDGFRα and PDGRFβ stromal cells may be potential therapeutic targets.

In this study, an implantable drug loading system, sunitinib nanoparticles @ matrix metalloproteinases -response hydrogel (NSMRH), uses enzyme-sensitive hydrogel as a carrier to load sunitinib nanoparticles, was identified...Finally, by studying the molecular mechanism of NSMRH, it was hypothesized that in breast cancer cells, NSMRH cooperated with sensitized radiotherapy, mainly due to significantly blocking the G2/M phase, reducing the DNA repair efficiency, inhibiting tumor angiogenesis, promoting apoptosis, and reversing the abnormal expression of platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) after radiotherapy. These findings suggest that NSMRH's radiation sensitization and anti-tumor activity may aid in the development of a novel method in future clinical applications.

CGP treatment induced a transient maturational delay at P11 and deficits in myelin expression at P15 with increased oligodendroglial proliferation. Our in vivo study indicates GABA receptor activity as a potential modulator of oligodendroglial development.

We conclude that HCMV infection in tumors will preferentially target tumor-associated fibroblasts and breast cancer cells expressing PDGFRα. HCMV infection in the tumor microenvironment, rather than cancer cells, will increase the inflammatory milieu that could enhance metastasis involving lysophosphatidate.

Taken together, these data demonstrate that NOP are an intermediate progenitor cell distinguishable from both NSC and primary OPC. Based on this profile, NOP may be useful for modeling mechanisms influencing the earliest stages of oligogenesis, and exploring the cellular and molecular responses of the earliest OL progenitors to conditions that impair myelination in the developing nervous system.

HIF1α orchestrates expression of PDGF-D and PDGFRα for constitutive activation of AKT pathway and is crucial for GBM malignancy. Therefore, therapies targeting HIF1α should provide an effective treatment for GBM.

OPC migration was reduced significantly in 10 ng/mL TNF-α treated group compared with the blank control. Conclusion TNF-α inhibits the migration of the cultured OPCs.

Finally, we review recent studies supporting the role of new OL production and "adaptive myelination" in specific behaviours and cognitive processes contributing to learning and long-term memory formation. Our article is not intended to be comprehensive but reflects the authors' past and present interests.

Pseudotime trajectory analysis defines developmental pathways of oligodendrocytes vs astrocytes from PDGFRα-expressing hOPCs and predicts differentially expressed genes between the two lineages. In addition, pathway enrichment analysis followed by pharmacological intervention of these pathways confirm that mTOR and cholesterol biosynthesis signaling pathways are involved in maturation of oligodendrocytes from hOPCs.

WIKI4, an inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, suppressed the migration of OPCs induced by Reelin. The present study indicated that Reelin promotes OPCs migration via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

P1b/2, N=99, Terminated, MedImmune LLC | Phase classification: P1/2 --> P1b/2 | Completed --> Terminated; In conjunction with the overall risk-benefit assessment, study was terminated prematurely due to safety concerns.

Overexpression of PDGFRα in adenocarcinoma suggests its potential role in tumor cells growth and invasion. The association between PDGFRα overexpression in both tumor and stromal adenocarcinoma cells with RAS wild type status suggests its potential role in anti-EGFR therapy resistance and the relevance of using it as specific or adjuvant therapeutic target.

Considering surface topography, biocompatibility, electrical conductivity and gene expression, the hybrid PCL/gelatin scaffold with the controlled release of T3 may be considered as a promising candidate to be used as an in vitro model to study patient-derived oligodendrocytes by isolating patient's BMSCs in pathological conditions such as diseases or injuries. Moreover, the resulted oligodendrocytes can be used as a desirable source for transplanting in patients.
