Systemic Delivery of Human Mesangioblasts mediated by a Nanofiber Scaffold restores Dystrophin Expression in Immunodeficient Dystrophic Mice.

Somaya Amer, Laricia Bragg, Sabrina Santoleri, Giulio Cossu, Francesco Galli

This paper describes a method using a nanofiber scaffold to deliver mesangioblasts systemically, restoring dystrophin expression in DMD mice.

Slit1 -a MET target gene in the embryonic limbs, prevents premature differentiation during mammalian myogenesis.

Masum Saini, Jyoti Jadhav, Giulio Cossu, Sam J. Mathew

The paper identifies Slit1 as a MET target gene that prevents premature differentiation during mammalian myogenesis by regulating progenitor cell migration and muscle development.
