No surprise. DNA repair again. Does someone think that CRISPRing few genes we will live forever...?

...non me lo sarei aspettata, ma mi sono trovata a scrivere di #sport e di ricerca sulle #cellulestaminali ! Ed è stato istruttivo e illuminante! Thanks to @BramVerbrugge #GYMproject @rosariaaiello @NefeleG #MaurilioSanpaolesi

The Maurilio Sampaolesi Lab (@SampaLab) at Stem Cell Institute (@scil_leuven) optimize a protocol to generate chemically defined human-induced pluripotent #stem cell-derived #mesodermal progenitors. 📋

Check out our latest publication where @NefeleG et al. identified "guide" cells - a subset of vessel-associated cells by #scRNAseq. Guide cells are able to improve myogenic differentiation without fusing with newly formed fibers. Impressive, isn't it?!

And of course with my PhD lab @SampaLab

Final project from my PhD is out. Tissue damage induces a conserved stress response that initiates quiescent muscle stem cell activation. This one was a lot of fun. Great collaboration with @RelaixLab with @LeoMachadodo @PhiliMour @FRelaix. https://t.co/TIaGuRCGFu

Happy to share the new GYM website, part of #InterregEurope. We will contribute to develop and commercially produce an innovative #stemcell #therapy for the treatment of patients with reduced #muscle mass, power and energy.

Thanks to the international reporter @DorotaBawolek for interviewing professor Maurilio Sampaolesi today at @scil_leuven about stem cell regeneration and engineered sensors.

Proud to share my latest publication "MICAL2 is essential for myogenic lineage commitment". We investigated the impact that MICAL2 has on skeletal and cardiac muscle in healthy and regenerating conditions. Check it out. #stemcells #skeletalmuscle

[Jordi Camps @JrdCamps]

Check out my #PhD work @CellReports. Through #singlecell #RNA sequencing, we discover an adipogenic regulatory cell type (Areg) in the skeletal #muscle that controls fat turnover. Huge implications for dystrophy patients that nearly have Aregs anymore.

Great FWO news!
Maurilio Sampaolesi and his group received an FWO grant for the project:
3D vascularized cardiac organoid on-chip for modeling of dystrophic and mitogenic cardiomyopathy.
