Introduction: The secretome of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) serves as an innovative tool employed in the regenerative medicine approach. In this particular context, three-dimensional (3D) culture systems are widely utilized to better replicate in vivo conditions and facilitate prolonged cell maintenance during culture. The use of spheroids...

The secretome of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from different tissue sources is considered an innovative therapeutic tool for regenerative medicine. Although adipose tissue-and bone marrow-derived MSCs (ADSCs and BMSCs, respectively) share many biological features, the different tissue origins can be mirrored by variations in their...

We previously reported that c-KIT+ human amniotic-fluid derived stem cells obtained from leftover samples of routine II trimester prenatal diagnosis (fetal hAFS) are endowed with regenerative paracrine potential driving pro-survival, anti-fibrotic and proliferative effects. hAFS may also be isolated from III trimester clinical waste samples...

Circulating autoantibodies of IgG2 isotype predominate in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and concur to the development of the renal lesions characteristic of Lupus Nephritis (LN). Anti-dsDNA and anti-histones IgG2, together with anti-podocyte proteins (i.e., α-enolase) are the major autoantibodies in serum and renal glomeruli of LN...

Background: B cell receptor Immunoglobulin (BcR IG) repertoire of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is characterized by the expression of quasi-identical BcR IG. These are observed in approximately 30% of patients, defined as stereotyped receptors and subdivided into subsets based on specific VH CDR3 aa motifs and phylogenetically related IGHV...

Long non-coding RNAs are emerging as essential regulators of gene expression, but their role in normal and neoplastic B cells is still largely uncharacterized. Here, we report on the expression pattern of the LINC00152 in normal B cells and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia B cell clones. Higher LINC00152 levels were consistently observed in memory...
