We have generated mouse embryonic stem cells with targeted disruption of spermidine/spermine N(1)-acetyltransferase (SSAT) gene. The targeted cells did not contain any inducible SSAT activity, and the SSAT protein was not present. The SSAT-deficient cells proliferated normally and appeared to maintain otherwise similar polyamine pools as did the wild-type cells, with the possible exception of constantly elevated (about 30%) cellular spermidine. As expected, the mutated cells were significantly more resistant toward the growth-inhibitory action of polyamine analogues, such as N(1),N(11)-diethylnorspermine. However, this resistance was not directly attributable to cellular depletion of the higher polyamines spermidine and spermine, as the analogue depleted the polyamine pools almost equally effectively in both wild-type and SSAT-deficient cells. Tracer experiments with [C(14)]-labeled spermidine revealed that SSAT activity is essential for the back-conversion of spermidine to putrescine as radioactive N(1)-acetylspermidine and putrescine were readily detectable in N(1),N(11)-diethylnorspermine-exposed wild-type cells but not in SSAT-deficient cells. Similar experiments with [C(14)]spermine indicated that the latter polyamine was converted to spermidine in both cell lines and, unexpectedly, more effectively in the targeted cells than in the parental cells. This back-conversion was only partly inhibited by MDL72527, an inhibitor of polyamine oxidase. These results indicated that SSAT does not play a major role in the maintenance of polyamine homeostasis, and the toxicity exerted by polyamine analogues is largely not based on SSAT-induced depletion of the natural polyamines. Moreover, embryonic stem cells appear to operate an SSAT-independent system for the back-conversion of spermine to spermidine.

WUSCHEL signaling functions in interregional communication during Arabidopsis ovule development.

Gross-Hardt R, Lenhard M, Laux T.

Coordinating the behaviors of different cell populations is essential for multicellular development. One important example for this can be found in ovule development in higher plants. Ovules give rise to the gametophyte in the distal nucellus and form protective sporophytic organs from the underlying chalaza. We show that the WUSCHEL (WUS) homeobox gene provides a mechanism to coordinate these events. WUS is expressed in the nucellus and our loss- and gain-of-function analyses show that WUS is not only necessary but also sufficient for integument formation from the chalaza. WUS protein is retained in the nucellus, indicating that WUS activity in the nucellus generates a downstream signal that non-cell-autonomously regulates integument initiation in the chalaza. This signal appears to act locally, thus determining the position of organ formation from chalazal cells adjacent to the nucellus. Analysis of WUS and AINTEGUMENTA functions indicates that integument initiation requires inputs from different ovule regions. Together with previous findings for shoot and floral meristems, where WUS signaling establishes a stem cell niche, our results indicate that WUS defines a signaling mechanism that is used repeatedly during plant development in coordinating the behavior of adjacent cell groups.

Treatment with the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab prior to stem cell collection may lead to tumor-free stem cell collections in patients with B-cell lymphoma undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation. To test the feasibility of obtaining polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-negative stem cell collection, 30 patients with a variety of B-cell lymphomas were enrolled in a protocol employing a common MINE (mitoxantrone/ifosfamide/etoposide) salvage regimen with rituximab (in vivo purging). Rituximab 400 mg/m2 was administered weekly for 3 weeks on days 1, 6, and 8 in relation to the last MINE cycle, which was followed by growth factor-stimulated peripheral stem cell collection. The median number of CD34(+) cells/kg was 2.5 million cells/kg collected over a median of 5 days. Polymerase chain reaction amplification for the t (14;18) or the heavy-chain gene rearrangement was performed prior to treatment and on the leukapheresis sample. Out of 15 patients who had a positive PCR signal prior to treatment, 10 had PCR-negative stem cell collections, whereas 5 had PCR-positive stem cell collections. After high-dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplant, all patients with a PCR-positive signal pretreatment became PCR negative. We conclude that rituximab may increase the yield of tumor-free stem cells. Higher rates of PCR negativity have been reported when more intense and protracted chemoimmunotherapy regimens have been employed. The magnitude of clinical benefit and the significance of the PCR analysis in stem cells after rituximab requires larger studies.

Bone marrow has been shown to contain a population of rare cells capable of differentiating to the cells that form various tissues. These cells, referred to as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are capable of forming bone when implanted ectopically in an appropriate scaffold. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of a new beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) as a scaffold and to compare the osteogenic potential between beta-TCP and hydroxyapatite (HA). The beta-TCP and HA loaded with MSCs were implanted in subcutaneous sites and harvested at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implantation for biochemical and histological analysis. Biochemically, in both beta-TCP and HA composites, the alkaline phosphatase activity in the composites could be detected and was maintained at a high level for 8 weeks. In the histological analysis, active bone formation could be found in both the beta-TCP and HA composites. These findings suggest that beta-TCP could play a role as a scaffold as well as HA. The fabricated synthetic bone using biodegradable beta-TCP as a scaffold in vivo is useful for reconstructing bone, because the scaffold material is absorbed several months after implantation.

Porous polyvinyl formal (PVF) resin and poly(lactide-caprolactone) [P(LA/CL)] sponges were examined as three-dimensional matrices for chondroinduction of cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Approximately 5 x 10(5) mouse MSCs were seeded in porous PVF resin or P(LA/CL) sponges and were cultured for up to 1 month in serum-free high-glucose Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 10 ng/mL transforming growth factor-beta3 and 100 nM dexamethasone for chondroinduction. After the 1-month culture period, the PVF resin and P(LA/CL) sponges contained approximately twice the amount of glycosaminoglycans compared with the control pellet. Safranin-O staining of PVF and P(LA/CL) after 1 month of culture revealed a cartilage-like extracellular matrix containing glycosaminoglycans and collagen. When implanted into nude mice, PVF and P(LA/CL) seeded with MSCs were found to be both biocompatible and chondroinductive. These highly porous scaffolds can maintain a large number of cells in a three-dimensional structure. Both are potentially promising for the chondroinduction of bone marrow MSCs for research and clinical applications. 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Vitamins, amino acids, oils for topical application, and prescription medications...
There are a number of approaches to hair loss problems.
Hair Million is an herbal alternative. It is a formula made of traditional, edible herbs and has been anecdotally demonstrated the efficacy to ward off hair loss problems.

There is no singular medical or alternative cure for hair loss since the biology of hair growth is a highly complicated phenomenon. It is unknown how Hair Million stops hair loss, and promotes hair restoration. The advantages of Hair Million over other approaches are, firstly, Hair Million is comparatively inexpensive, and secondly, it is made only of traditionally used safe and healthy herbs that promote hair growth according to Chinese pharmacopoeia. In addition, Hair Million is cardiotonic, meaning that Hair Million consists of herbs that strengthens your heart, according to Chinese medicine. There is an interesting research paper which correlates baldness to heart diseases: people with alopecia or hair loss problems are significantly more likely to develop heart attacks.














DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands. DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones) or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
