SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Prof. Rui L. Reis
DESCRIPTION:New Approaches\, combining natural materials and stem cells\, for the Engineering of Different Types of Tissues\nProf. Rui L. Reis\, University of Minho\nThe selection of a proper material to be used as a scaffold or as a hydrogel to support\, hold or encapsulate cells is both a critical and a difficult choice that will determine the success of failure of any tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) strategy.\nWe believe that the use of natural origin polymers\, including a wide range of marine origin materials\, is the best option for many different approaches that allow for the regeneration of different tissues. In addition to the selection of appropriate material systems it is of utmost importance the development of processing methodologies that allow for the production of adequate scaffolds/matrices\, in many cases incorporating bioactive/differentiation agents in their structures. \nFurthermore an adequate cell source should be selected. In many cases efficient cell isolation\, expansion and differentiation\, and in many cases the selection of a specific sub-population\, methodologies should be developed and optimized. We have been using different human cell sources namely: mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow\, mesenchymal stem cells from human adipose tissue\, human cells from amniotic fluids and membranes and cells obtained from human umbilical cords. \nThe development of dynamic ways to culture the cells and of distinct ways to stimulate their differentiation in 3D environments\, as well as the use of nano-based systems to induce their differentiation and internalization into cells\, is also a key part of some of the strategies that are being developed in our research group. \nThe potential of each combination materials/cells\, to be used to develop novel useful regeneration therapies will be discussed. The use of different cells and their interactions with different natural origin degradable scaffolds and smart hydrogels will be described. Several examples of TERM strategies to regenerate different types of tissues will be presented. This will include the use of original high-throughput methodologies to look at materials/cell interactions. \n

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Alvaro Aytés\, IDIBELL
DESCRIPTION:Cross-species analysis of gene regulatory networks during prostate cancer progression\nAlvaro Aytés\, IDIBELL\nAnalysis of gene regulatory networks is a powerful tool to decipher drivers of phenotypic transitions\, oncogenic dependencies and potential vulnerabilities that can be exploited for therapeutic intervention. By modeling prostate cancer progression in genetically engineered mice we have been able to perform cross-species studies between mouse and human\, facilitating the identification and functional validation of cancer mechanisms. In particular we have a strong interest in understanding how aberrant control of transcriptional programs leads to treatment failure and resistance in prostate cancer. Whether this results in the emergence of new dependencies and vulnerabilities is also key to envision new treatment paradigms in the era of personalized medicine. \n
