21. Stem cell fate regulation: computational modeling in the hematopoietic system
Abstract : The ability to sense the surrounding environment and respond to external fluctuations is a fundamental property of cells, the basic unit of life. Although cells can be very different in their composition and structure, they all have specialized molecular mechanisms that allow them to adapt to their environment, by coordinating gene expression and protein production.

22. On the origin of B cells. Elucidating the Role of Tyrosine Kinase Receptors in B Cell Development
Abstract : B cells are essential cells that are part of the adaptive immune system with the capacity to produce antibodies against exogenous antigens. These cells are produced through a process called hematopoiesis, tightly regulated by extrinsic and intrinsic factors. READ MORE

23. Long bone growth and evolution revealed by three-dimensional imaging
Abstract : Propagation phase-contrast synchrotron radiation microtomography is a non-destructive method used for studying histology in three dimensions (3D). Using it, the 3D organization of the diaphyseal cortical vascularization in the humerus of two seymouriamorphs was analyzed in this thesis. READ MORE

24. Mechanisms of survival and maintenance of Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Multipotent Progenitor Cells
Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells are maintained in the bone marrow microenvironment, where factors including soluble and membrane-bound cytokines influence the processes of self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation. Two nonreduntant cytokines with effects on hematopoiesis, Kit Ligand (KL) and Flt3 Ligand (FL), signal via related tyrosine kinase receptors, c-kit and Flt3. READ MORE

25. Molecular regulation of hematopoietic stem cells
Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are ultimately responsible for the all mature blood cell production. They can primarily be found in the bone marrow (BM) at a low frequency (~0.02%). READ MORE
