Abstract:
The goal of this dissertation was to test the hypothesis that fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) is required during diseased-related vascular growth and remodeling in the adult organism. Given previous research, it is generally assumed that FGF2 is an important regulator of vessel growth during various pathophysiological processes (e.g. tissue ischemia, vessel injury, and flow-dependent remodeling). However, such studies only indirectly implicate FGF2 in vascular adaptation and remodeling. In contrast, experiments using mice with a targeted disruption of the Fgf2 gene have allowed direct determ

Abstract:
Current usage of human embryonic stem cells (hES) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) in clinical therapies and personalized medicine are limited as a result of ethical, technical and medical problems that arise from isolation and generation of these cells. Isolation of hES cells faces ethical problems associated with their derivation from human pre-implantation embryos. The most controversial aspect of hES cell isolation targets the generation of autologous hES cell lines which requires the transfer of a somatic-cell nucleus from the patient to an enucleated oocyte.

Abstract:
Hearing loss is a health and social problem, particularly common among older people. Deafness is associated with an irreversible loss of sensory hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons, which don’t have regenerative potential. To date, cochlear implants are the only possible therapy, even if not always effective. Therefore, there is an enormous research interest aimed at identifying factors that could prevent hearing loss.

Abstract:
Plusieurs arguments laissent penser que le fgf-2 joue un role important dans le controle de la formation osseuse. Cependant, les mecanismes cellulaires et moleculaires par lesquels le fgf-2 peut moduler l'osteogenese sont peu connus. Nous avons etudie les effets de ce facteur de croissance et ses mecanismes d'action en utilisant des cellules osteoblastiques issues de la voute cranienne de nourrissons, constituant un nouveau modele osteogenique recemment developpe dans le laboratoire. Nous avons montre que ces cellules humaines de calvaria expriment les recepteurs fgfr1 et fgfr2 et sont donc de
