Pluripotency Factors on Their Lineage Move by Clair E. Weidgang, Thomas Seufferlein, Alexander Kleger, Martin Mueller

“…Thereby, subsets of pluripotency-maintaining factors have been shown to adopt new roles during lineage specification and have been globally defined towards neuroectodermal and mesendodermal sets of embryonic stem cell genes. However, detailed underlying insights into how these transcription factors orchestrate cell fate decisions remain largely elusive. …”

Living biobank: Standardization of organoid construction and challenges by Ruixin Yang, Yao Qi, Xiaoyan Zhang, Hengjun Gao, Yingyan Yu, Yuanyuan Ji

“…Organoids cover two mainstream fields: Adult stem cell-derived organoids (also known as patient-derived organoids) and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived and/or embryonic stem cell-derived organoids. Given the increasing importance of organoids in the development of new drugs, standardized operation, and management in all steps of organoid construction is an important guarantee to ensure the high quality of products. …”

The Importance of Ubiquitination and Deubiquitination in Cellular Reprogramming by Bharathi Suresh, Junwon Lee, Kye-Seong Kim, Suresh Ramakrishna

“…Ubiquitination and deubiquitination must occur in a timely and well-coordinated manner to regulate the protein turnover of several stemness related proteins, resulting in optimal embryonic stem cell maintenance and differentiation. There are two switches: an E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme that tags ubiquitin molecules to the target proteins for proteolysis and a second enzyme, the deubiquitinating enzyme (DUBs), that performs the opposite action, thereby preventing proteolysis. …”

TEX10 Promotes the Tumorigenesis and Radiotherapy Resistance of Urinary Bladder Carcinoma by Stabilizing XRCC6 by Sheng Luo, Wenjin Wang, Jingfang Feng, Rui Li

“…As a novel core part of pluripotency circuitry, testicular expression 10 (TEX10) plays an actively noticeable effect on reprogramming, early embryo development, and embryonic stem cell self-renewal. Nevertheless, TEX10 expressions and functions within bladder carcinoma are still not known. …”

Derivation of Pluripotent Cells from Mouse SSCs Seems to Be Age Dependent by Hossein Azizi, Sabine Conrad, Ursula Hinz, Behrouz Asgari, Daniel Nanus, Heike Peterziel, Akbar Hajizadeh Moghaddam, Hossein Baharvand, Thomas Skutella

“…Here, we aimed to answer important and fundamental questions in germ cell biology with special focus on the age of the male donor cells and the possibility to generate embryonic stem cell- (ESC-) like cells. While it is believed that spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) and truly pluripotent ESC-like cells can be isolated from adult mice, it remained unknown if the spontaneous conversion of SSCs to ESC-like cells fails at some age. …”
