Book Chapter
Gomzikova, M. O., James, V., & Rizvanov, A. A. (2022). Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Biological Activity and Approaches of Large-Scale Production. In K. H. Haider (Ed.), Handbook of stem cell therapy. Springer Singapore. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-16-6016-0_48-1

The discovery of extracellular vesicles has provided an outstanding breakthrough in stem cells and regenerative medicine. It has been shown that cells can transfer information through the secretion of soluble factors, the formation of direct physical...

Extracellular vesicles, tumor growth, and the metastatic process (2021)
Book Chapter
Wesson, F., Brown, T. J., & James, V. (2022). Extracellular vesicles, tumor growth, and the metastatic process. In D. Heymann (Ed.), Bone Cancer: Bone Sarcomas and Bone Metastases - From Bench to Bedside (275-284). (3rd). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-821666-8.00058-X

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) form an important part of cell-to-cell communication, with roles in both health and disease. Within the cancer setting, this heterogenous population of extracellular messengers can have both pro- and antitumorigenic prope...

Epigenetic control of microRNA expression and cancer (2017)
Book Chapter
De Brot, S., Rutland, C. S., Mongan, N. P., & James, V. (2018). Epigenetic control of microRNA expression and cancer. In J. Chakrabarti, & S. Mitra (Eds.), Cancer and Noncoding RNAs (373-380). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-811022-5.00020-6

MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are involved in pathways central to homeostasis and cellular function, including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis; processes which when aberrantly regulated contribute to the hallmarks of cancer. The contributi... Read More about Epigenetic control of microRNA expression and cancer.

Heterochromatin modulation and PCG control of gene expression mediated by noncoding RNA in cancer (2017)
Book Chapter
Rutland, C. S., de Brot, S., James, V., & Mongan, N. P. (2018). Heterochromatin modulation and PCG control of gene expression mediated by noncoding RNA in cancer. In J. Chakrabarti, & S. Mitra (Eds.), Cancer and Noncoding RNAs (359-372). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-811022-5.00019-x

In eukaryotes, the packaging of DNA and proteins, termed chromatin, is an essential determinant of transcription. The basic unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, is composed of ∼146 base pairs of DNA spooled around a dense protein core containing two co...
