  • Prominin-1 (CD133): New Insights on Stem & Cancer Stem Cell Biology

    Edited by Denis Corbeil ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Prominin-1 or otherwise known as CD133 is a glycoprotein that is present in humans and mice. Since the first description of prominin in 1997, in mouse neuroepithelial cells and in human hematopoietic stem cells as AC133 antigen, this molecule has aroused a large interest especially, as a stem cell marker, that gave rise to an ever growing body of publications and more recently its expression in ...

  • Spheroids in Cancer Research

    Methods and Perspectives

    Edited by H. Acker, J. Carlsson, R. Durand, R.M. Sutherland ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    Malignant growth of cells is often characterized by disorganization of tissue structure, abnormal blood vessel development, and insuffi cient vascular supply. As a consequence, the cancer cells grow in a three-dimensional pattern in atypical microenvironments which include physical, chemical, and nutritional stresses. Necrosis often develops some distance away from the blood vessels. In ... Read more

  • Coxiella burnetii: Recent Advances and New Perspectives in Research of the Q Fever Bacterium

    Edited by Rudolf Toman, Jean-Louis Mege, Robert A. Heinzen, James E. Samuel ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Coxiella burnetii is the etiological agent of Q fever, a zoonotic disease found worldwide. The bacterium is a fascinating example of intracellular parasitism that has uniquely evolved to thrive in the most inhospitable of cellular compartments-the phagolysosome. Understanding how C. burnetii resists the degradative functions of this vacuole, and the host cell functions coopted for successful ... Read more
