From heparan glycobiology to stem cell therapy: a historical perspective by Victor Nurcombe

“…Furthermore, structure-function relationships are presented, which resulted in the recognition that specific sugar-moieties and sulfation states provide a “glycocode” that is analogous to the “genetic code” and the epigenetic “histone code”. Translational avenues include the selection and biochemical tuning of heparan sugars as nanoscale scaffolds that support cell signaling for specific applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. …”

Prmt5 is essential for intestinal stem cell maintenance and homeostasis by Li Yang, Xuewen Li, Chenyi Shi, Bing Zhao

“…Abstract Intestinal homeostasis relies on the continuous renewal of intestinal stem cells (ISCs), which could be epigenetically regulated. While protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (Prmt5) is known to play a key role in multiple organs as an epigenetic modifier, its specific function in maintaining intestinal homeostasis remains to be elucidated. …”
