Diverse cellular origins of adult blood vascular endothelial cells

Aquiono, Jorge.; Sierra, Romina.; Montaldo, Laura. (Elsevier, 2021-09)

Abstract During embryonic stages, vascular endothelial cells (ECs) originate from the mesoderm, at specific extraembryonic and embryonic regions, through a process called vasculogenesis. In the adult, EC renewal/replacement ...
Involvement of hepatic macrophages in the antifibrotic effect of IGF-I_overexpressing mesenchymal stromal cells.

Fiore, Esteban.; Malvicini, Mariana.; Bayo, Juan.; Peixoto, Estanislao.; Atorrasagasti, Catalina.; Sierra, Romina.; Rodriguez, Marcelo. (BMC (part of Springer Nature), 2016-11-22)

BACKGROUND: Cirrhosis is a major health problem worldwide and new therapies are needed. Hepatic macrophages (hMø) have a pivotal role in liver fibrosis, being able to act in both its promotion and its resolution. It is ...
Schwann cell precursors in health and disease.

Aquino, Jorge.; Sierra, Romina. (Wiley, 2017-11-10)

Schwann cell precursors (SCPs) are frequently regarded as neural crest-derived cells (NCDCs) found in contact with axons during nerve formation. Nevertheless, cells with SCPs properties can be found up to the adulthood. ...
