Eight Summer Academy of Dermatopathology Graz, July 18 - 22, 2011. Owens and co‐workers demonstrated that targeted expression of α6β4 integrin in murine suprabasal epidermis results in a substantial increase in sensitivity to two‐stage chemical carcinogenesis 90. The vasculature and length of the adaxial ribs of the Basella types show that they are different and as such should be treated as distinct taxa. Gill (1988) reported that only one species, B. alba is found in West Africa. In this review we have discussed the recent studies looking at the location and potential of epidermal stem and progenitor cells and their connection to cancer. Evidence suggests that the p63 and c‐Myc networks are likely to be involved. Pollination is cleistogamous although some pollination by short-tongued insects is reported ( Bogle, 1969 ). Rib length was 9,481.25±2.35 μm long in B. rubra; B. alba, It remains unresolved whether the observed differences reflect species‐specific characteristics of epidermal stem cells, or whether different progenitor cell populations are selectively activated in different in vitro and in vivo experiments. rubra. The central, variable region of CD44 ectodomain is encoded by 10 (v1–v10) exons that generate a large array of alternatively spliced isoforms. Even so, taken together, these studies show that many populations of epidermal cells can be isolated with ‘stemness’ characteristics from distinct regions in the skin (Figure 1) and begin to challenge the classic idea that stem cells are slow‐cycling, niche‐resident cells. In addition to p53 deficiency, the authors observed that these cells were deficient for Smad4. Furthermore, recent studies have identified a third stem cell population of epidermal neural crest stem cells 13, 14. They are annual or biennial herbs. Crystal sands are circular and abundant. Basella rubra has an extended rib, 9,481.25±2.35 μm long while the other forms have ribs that can be described as short. This study showed that the genus Basella is not a monotypic genus as reported in the Flora. Parietal Epithelial Cells Regenerate Podocytes. This procedure entails inducing a genetic mutation in H‐Ras by 7,12‐dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) application, followed by tumour promotion through repeated applications of 12‐O‐tetradecanoyl‐phorbol‐13‐acetate (TPA). Stem cells have the unusual ability to renew themselves over the lifetime of the organ while producing daughter cells that differentiate into one or multiple lineages. However, similar to CD44, podoplanin appears to define the population of SSC stem cells in rather broad terms, as also in this case the lowest published dose of cells required for tumourigenesis in 4 weeks was 10 000 cells 105. On the contrary, murine SP keratinocytes have high cell surface α6 and β1 integrin levels and express the BCRP1 efflux protein 113. Since the growth‐inhibitory response of keratinocytes to TGFβ was prevented, the clonal growth of the initiated basal cells was accelerated 90. (for reviews, see 116-118). Cuticle is thin and not striated. Further understanding of the link between normal epidermal stem and progenitor cells and cancer stem cells will likely provide important clues in developing effective prevention and treatment of epidermal cancers. In cancer stem cells, efficient drug exclusion contributes to resistance to chemotherapy 108. Epidermal cells are uniseriate in some portion and biseriate in others. 2c). Adaxial epidermis has median depression (Fig. 1f). An alternative approach to identify SCC cancer stem cells has been to detect and characterize a population of cells called side‐population (SP) cells by their ability to efficiently pump out Hoechst 33 342 dye. Furthermore, the most abundant pectin-type . (2011) distinguishing features of the petiole that are of taxonomic value include variation in the shapes of the petiole, the variation in the number, arrangement and shapes of vascular bundles, types and mode of distribution of trichomes on the petioles, as well as the distribution of crystals in the petioles. An important step in characterizing SCC cancer stem cells was taken by Prince et al 82, using methods previously employed to characterize breast cancer stem cells 94. This collection needs to be recognized as different taxa because of its distinct petiole anatomical feature. However, this does not equate to just an expansion of the epidermal stem cell compartment, as these cancer cells down‐regulate expression of other normal stem cell proteins involved in stem cell dormancy, such as Lrig1 and MAP4. In adult hair follicles, Notch acts downstream of the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway during the β‐catenin stimulation of hair follicle growth and during de novo hair morphogenesis, and the Notch ligand, Jagged1, is essential for these processes. 1f). This purple form is botanically known as Basella rubra (Synonym: Basella alba var. Stem cells in pathobiology and regenerative medicine, Teaching materials: Figures 1–2 as PowerPoint slides. In embryonic epidermis, Notch signalling induces Ascl2, an Achaete/Scute‐related basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcriptional activator, to stimulate spinous differentiation independent of the Notch downstream transcription factor Hes1. Cortex: Cortical cells are made up of thin walled polygonal, circular or oval parenchyma and collenchyma cells. 2b). However, in the presence of mutant Ras, α6β4 integrin promoted tumourigenesis and its deletion resulted in reduced tumour size 91. In healthy skin, epidermal stem cells divide infrequently but upon skin injury, stem cells rapidly divide to repair the wound. Fresh, surgically‐removed SCC specimens were maintained by implanting tumour grafts into a mouse recipient. In summary, the Notch, Wnt/β‐catenin, p63, c‐Myc and Hedgehog pathways are interconnected and essential regulators of normal skin homeostasis. This evidence supports the theory that these types of tumours are propagated and maintained by a population of cancer stem cells. Neural crest–derived cells contribute to melanocytes, sensory nerve endings of the skin, and the dermis of the head. It is thought that the TA cell is limited in its proliferative ability and plasticity 1, 2. Conversely, inhibiting the pathway in the developing embryo leads to a complete lack of hair follicle formation 53, 56. Kenyon, K.R. The use of round in describing this type is for convenience in this study. Evidence of active Shh and Wnt/β‐catenin signalling was found in these tumours 76, 127, and deletion of epidermal Notch1 increases the sensitivity to tumour development induced by two‐stage chemical carcinogenesis and in response to activated Ras 76, 128. Basella rubra (Roxyb) Inflammation is the complex biological response of vascular tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants. Thus, CD44 expression is clearly not useful for enriching epidermal stem cells from healthy skin. Members of this genus are twinning sub succulent herbs with long, much branched stem. Cortical bundle sheath present in the cortex. Apart from the use of red-purple pigmentation in distinguishing the two species of Basella in Nigeria, information on the taxonomy of the genus is scanty and conflicting both within and outside Nigeria (Hutchinson and Dalziel, 1958; Sharma, 1961; Adeyemi, 2007; Gamble et al., 1967; Henry et al., 1987; Bittrich and Sperling, 1993; Warrier et al., 1994; Palada and Chang, 2003; Greuter and Von Raab-Straube, 2006; Larkcom, 2007; Ozela et al., 2007; Oladele and Aborisade, 2009; FAO, 1999; Roy et al., 2010). Melanoma stem cells: not rare, but well done. excess stain and then treated in series of grades of ethanol. almost round leaves; Basella rubra with red . 2e) which are perpendicular to the surface of the petiole. Since cells sorted according to their expression levels of α6 integrin and CD71 (α6 integrinbright/CD71dim cells) expanded over 200‐fold in this long‐term transplantation study, the authors concluded that human keratinocyte stem cells reside in the α6 integrinbright/CD71dim population rather than in the SP cell population 112. Without healthy production of new cells, anemia risk also decreases. This is consistent with recent reports showing that CD44 is one of the cell‐surface antigens that defines cancer stem cells in other epithelial carcinomas, such as breast 94, pancreatic 95 and colorectal 96 cancers. Vasculature: Vascular bundles amphicribral, 3 in number and they are free forming an arch and an additional medullary collateral bundle (Fig. investigated. Basella alba round is not assigned any taxonomic status in literatures. In oral/head and neck SCC specimens, the expression of variant isoforms is often decreased, but for most isoforms the expression pattern is not consistent between different tumour samples or cell lines 102, 103. Some of these key pathways include the Notch, Wnt/β‐catenin, Hedgehog, c‐Myc and p63 pathways. Adaxial and abaxial epidermises have stomata. rubra. In some portion of the epidermis, the cells are made up of single cylindrical cells which are perpendicular to the surface of the petiole. Interestingly, the authors show that Hes1 is required for progressive terminal differentiation 71. 84). Tissue stem cells form the cellular base for organ homeostasis and repair. Stem, petiole, leaf and peduncles are green in color (Fig. 2f) but in some portions uniseriate. This waterproof skin barrier and its associated hair follicles and glandular structures, sebaceous and sweat glands, are formed by a stratified epithelium where the position of the cell within the tissue relates to its state of differentiation. In the EPU model, one slow‐cycling stem cell supplies all of the basal and suprabasal cells in a hexagonal column of differentiation 18, 25-28. One difference may be due to the fact that other tumour stem cells were identified by a combination of two or three cell surface antigens, eg pancreatic cancer stem cells are CD44+, CD24+ and ESA+ 95. This is called as 'Sigappuppasali' (Red Spinach) in Tamil. In the quest to understand the biology of epidermal stem cells, research has focused on answering three main questions of interest: where are epidermal cells located, what markers do these cells express, and what is the fate potential of epidermal stem cells—as a corollary, what signalling pathways regulate cell fate decisions? The oncogene c‐Myc is a downstream target of β‐catenin (for review, see 59); however, evidence suggests that c‐Myc independently influences epidermal cell proliferation, migration and commitment to the sebaceous lineage 60. This is called as 'Sigappuppasali' (Red Spinach) in Tamil. The Contribution of Stem Cells to Epidermal and Hair Follicle Tumours in the Dog. More recently, the molecular signature of human bulge cells has been identified 30. A group of researchers studied the androgenic effects of methanol extracts of the leaves of Hibiscus macranthus (Malvaceae) and Basella alba (Basellaceae) on adult rat and bull Leydig cells. Photomicrographs were taken with the aid of 3013 ACCU-SCOPE Trinocular Microscope with Digital Camera. The contribution of stem cells to epidermal and hair follicle tumours in the dog. Photomicrographs were taken using 3013 ACCU-SCOPE Trinocular Microscope In the adult, many different types of stem cells … Transcriptional and Translational Regulation of Stem Cells. Surprisingly, only a few proteins are expressed on both mouse and human bulge cells, including Tenascin C, CD200, Keratin 15, and Keratin 19 30, 31. 91). Further, holoclone‐forming cells could be isolated from all portions of the hair follicle, including the highly proliferative hair follicle bulb 21. The perianth tube is greenish white in the basal and pink in apical regions. Outline: The petiole outline is boat or saucer shaped with short ribs. In particular, we highlight the recent effort to characterize cancer stem cells in squamous cell carcinomas and discuss the roles of the Wnt/β‐catenin, Notch, p63, c‐Myc and Hedgehog signalling networks in regulating normal epidermal stem cells and in tumour development. The role of Notch signalling is quite complex and appears to play different roles, depending on the epidermal compartment 67. By definition, adult stem cells (SCs) have the ability to both self‐renew and produce differentiated progeny 3. Outline: The petiole outline is boat or saucer shaped with short ribs. Basella alba with green stem and oval to . Mice that lack one functional copy of p63 are resistant to spontaneous or chemically‐induced tumours (Figure 2) 123. There are two types, Basella alba and Basella rubra. Special attention in the epidermal cancer stem cell field has been given to head and neck SCC, which, unlike epidermal SCCs, are often invasive, recurrent and chemotherapy‐resistant, with only a 50% 5 year survival rate 92. The authors generated immortalized (p53 deletion) mouse primary keratinocytes that carried a conditional β4 integrin subunit knockout. Any queries (other than missing content) should be directed to the corresponding author for the article. Almeida (2003), in ‘Flora of Maharashtra’ has mentioned that, the plant with green stem and green petiole is Basella alba L. and the other with red stem and red petiole is Basella alba L. var. Both in vitro and in vivo assays are routinely used to assess the potential of putative stem cell populations. Crystal druses are found in the cortex and they are housed in the parenchyma cells. Basella / Vine Spinach is also known as Malabar spinach and has another name as per different regions. c‐Myc activation in transgenic mouse epidermis results in mobilization of stem cells and

If you do not receive an email within 10 minutes, your email address may not be registered, Undulating rib epidermis is unique to B. rubra. Stem, petiole, abaxial surface of the leaf and peduncles are pink in color (Fig. Basella Alba is a herb used commonly alongside Hibiscus macranthus for the purpose of fertility. Interestingly, cancer stem cells derived from epidermal tumours exist independent of the classic skin stem cell niche, yet also have stem cell properties, including multi‐lineage differentiation. The epidermis and its waxy cuticle provide a protective barrier against mechanical injury, water loss, and infection. 1). Basella alba var. Various modified epidermal cells regulate 100 g of fresh Basela contains 1.20 mg of iron which in 15 % of recommended daily allowance (RDA). Earlier folklore claims reports that the plant is used in inflammatory conditions. 2c). Vasculature: Vascular bundles amphicribral, 3 and fused. There are two forms which are distributed throughout the Southern Asian sub-continent. Unlike the Wnt/β‐catenin, Hedgehog, p63 and c‐Myc pathways, Notch activity acts as an epidermal tumour suppressor. This process likely requires an upstream priming signal from the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway. Taking all these studies together, the effect of α6β4 integrin appears to be dependent on the oncogenic mutations present in epidermal tumour cells. It will be interesting to determine whether these highly proliferative cells act as a long‐term progenitor pool, and what is the contribution of these cells in maintaining the epidermal layers in normal skin. The skin and their accessory structures such as hair, glands, and nails make up the integumentary system, which provides the body with overall protection. However, down‐regulation of CD44v9 expression correlates with poor differentiation and metastatic potential 104. The cylindrical cells are perpendicular to the surface of the petiole. Anatomy sometimes proves useful in individual identification especially materials that are not accompanied by floral parts or fruits and can be used to establish botanical identity of commercial samples of medicinal plants (Metcalfe and Chalk, 1979). BCCs are thought arise from hair follicle cells and it has been proposed that their formation is similar to hair follicle development, a Shh‐dependent process 121. Epidermal stem cells, like all tissue‐specific adult stem cells, are thought to reside in niches where positional and contextual cues from the surrounding microenvironment regulate the proliferation and differentiation of these cells. p63 is essential for the development of a stratified epithelium such as the epidermis, and p63 knockout mice have extensive defects in epithelial development, including complete lack of skin and hair 47, 48. Clusters of cells highly positive for β1 integrin are found in specific locations in relationship to the epidermal–dermal junction in the interfollicular epidermis 33, 34. Notably, the tumourigenic potential was almost exclusively contained within the CD44+ population (only 1 in 40 transplantation experiments using CD44− cells resulted in tumour growth, and in that case the transplanted cells were not double‐sorted, raising a possibility of contamination). Petioles provide many useful anatomical characters and are widely used in other aspects of taxonomy and have been largely applied to the elucidation of phylogenetic relationship (Unamba et al., 2011). 2b). There exists convincing evidence derived from analysis of epidermal tumours in humans and genetically modified mice that stem cell populations in the different epidermal compartments are targets of carcinogenesis. Moreover, murine SP cells show tissue‐regenerative capacity when seeded on devitalized rat trachea and transplanted to SCID mice 114. On exiting the niche, undifferentiated progenitor cells are thought to rapidly expand before initiating terminal differentiation to become a cell of the hair follicle, interfollicular epidermis or sebaceous gland. Basella alba is a plant of the moist tropics, where it is found at elevations up to 1,500 metres. This said, even poorly differentiated tumours contain small regions of CD44v9+ cells 104. Taken together, the xenograft transplantation 82 and in vitro 92 studies support the hypothesis that SCC cancer stem cells are enriched in populations with high CD44 surface expression. Furthermore, recent studies have identified a third stem cell population of epidermal neural crest stem cells 13, 14. Cuticle is thin and not striated. Suggesting that additional signalling components are involved in regulating how the Notch signal is transmitted downstream 71, 74, 75. Malabar spinach, also referred as creeping spinach, Indian spinach, or red vine spinach, is a vegetable native to India and Indonesia that tends to grow best in temperatures over 90°F.. Clayton et al 4 propose an alternative mechanism where a stem cell in the interfollicular epidermis can divide asymmetrically to maintain one daughter as a stem cell, while the other daughter cell commits to differentiate directly without further rounds of cell division. Jensen et al 45 found that a sub‐region of the MTS24+ area, called the upper isthmus (UI), is negative for expression of Sca1, a marker absent in haematopoietic stem cells (Figure 1). Outline: The petiole outline is boat or saucer shaped with short ribs. We would also like to thank Kristin Braun for her helpful comments. Studies by Braun et al 24 and Waghmare et al 39 suggest that only a fraction of bulge cells retain label for an extended period. Several approaches have been taken in the effort to identify epidermal stem cells. Therefore several research groups have undertaken extensive efforts to define a set of stem cell specific markers. Notch is also linked to Hedgehog, as disruption of Notch signalling in both mouse and Drosophila epithelial cells leads to persistence of Hedgehog signalling 76, 77. The boat shape and the presence of adaxial ribs are common to all the species but the length of the ribs differs from one form to another. Within these β1 integrin‐rich clusters, cells also highly express MCSP, Delta1 and Lrig1 33, 35, 36. This concept arose in the early 1970s from studies looking at the cell cycle kinetics of various populations within the mammalian interfollicular epidermis, and has formed the basis for an extensive set of experiments identifying interfollicular epidermal populations based on their cycling properties. Additionally, it will be interesting to compare the potential of these progenitor cells with tumour‐derived cancer stem cells, which also exist outside the normal stem cell niche and have the capacity for multi‐lineage differentiation. O for 5 min, rinsed in water thrice to remove excess stain and then counter TP53 mutations in clinically normal mucosa adjacent to oral carcinomas. Crystal druses are found in the cortex and they are housed in the parenchyma cells. 2). Basella rubra has purplish stems and deep-green leaves with pink veins, while Basella alba has a green stem and dark green leaves. The mean rib length is 9,481.25±2.35 μm. SCC tumour cells were analysed by flow cytometry, either immediately upon removal from the patient or after tumour growth in recipient mice. However, it still needs to be established whether CD34‐expressing, non‐keratinocyte cells contribute to suppression of skin carcinogenesis in the knockout mouse model. Epidermis, in botany, outermost, protoderm-derived layer of cells covering the stem, root, leaf, flower, fruit, and seed parts of a plant. Epidermal deletion of the oncogene c‐Myc in basal cells also results in resistance to tumour formation (Figure 2) 124 and, conversely, spontaneous tumours have been reported in c‐Myc over‐expressing mice 125. This shows point of divergence among the forms. However, the skin is composed of tissues and performs mission-critical functions in the body.. Even so, tumour formation was delayed and the number of papillomas was lower than in the control mice. Rib bundles lined the length of each rib (Fig. Studies suggest that squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are also maintained by a subpopulation of tumour cancer stem cells 81, 82. Like c‐Myc, there is evidence that the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway acts downstream of β‐catenin; however, Shh influences hair follicle morphogenesis. Postcranial morphological features of homozygous tetraploid mouse embryos. Essiett et al. Subsequent analysis of LRC experiments has shown that approximately 95% of the slow‐cycling epidermal LRCs reside in the hair follicle bulge 19, 23, 24. showing collateral vascular bundles, (b) Extended adaxial rib of B. rubra showing μm and B. alba round 6,126.50±1.56 μm. Human cancer stem cells are thought to express high levels of the cell surface marker, CD44, but have reduced levels of Lrig1 and MAP4, two proteins that putatively regulate quiescence in normal human epidermal stem cells.
