Mesenchymal Progenitors Aging Highlights a miR-196 Switch Targeting HOXB7 as Master Regulator of Proliferation and Osteogenesis
26 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
Human aging is associated with a decrease in tissue functions combined with a decline in stem cells frequency and activity followed by a loss of regenerative capacity. The molecular mechanisms behind this senescence remain largely obscure, precluding targeted approaches to counteract aging. Focusing on mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSC) as known adult progenitors, we identified a specific switch in miRNA...
