Epigenetic Regulation in Mesenchymal Stem Cell Aging and Differentiation and Osteoporosis by Ruoxi Wang, Yu Wang, Lisha Zhu, Yan Liu, Weiran Li

“…Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a reliable source for cell-based regenerative medicine owing to their multipotency and biological functions. However, aging-induced systemic homeostasis disorders in vivo and cell culture passaging in vitro induce a functional decline of MSCs, switching MSCs to a senescent status with impaired self-renewal capacity and biased differentiation tendency. …”

A two or three compartments hyperbolic reaction-diffusion model for the aquatic food chain by Elvira Barbera, Giancarlo Consolo, Giovanna Valenti

“…It is assumed that the zooplankton predation follows a Holling type-III functional response, while the zooplankton mortality is linear.Owing to the hyperbolic structure of our equations, the wave processes occur at finite velocity, so that the paradox of instantaneous diffusion of biological quantities, typical of parabolic systems, is consequently removed.The character of steady states and travelling waves, together with the occurrence of Hopf bifurcations, is then discussed through linear stability analysis. …”

Plants from Arid Zones of Mexico: Bioactive Compounds and Potential Use for Food Production by Isabel Márquez-Rangel, Mario Cruz, Alberto A. Neira-Vielma, Sonia N. Ramírez-Barrón, Pedro Aguilar-Zarate, Ruth Belmares

“…This has led to an opportunity to study arid zone plants as food sources that have potential biological activities and improve consumer health. (2) Methods: In this work, we review recent research focused on the traditional use and importance of arid zone plants, their nutritional contribution, and their beneficial effects on health when they are consumed; these effects are primarily because of their antioxidant activity, which inhibits free radicals and contributes to improved nutrition and benefits consumer health. (3) Results: Several plant-based functional food studies have shown that the consumption of bioactive compounds is a complement to drugs for preventing some chronic degenerative diseases, such as gastrointestinal diseases, diabetes, and obesity. (4) Conclusions: Given all of the previously mentioned factors, plants from arid zones are potential sources for obtaining bioactive compounds with low water requirements.…”
