stem cell-based therapies have recently opened up new horizons for treatment of various types of diseases including diabetes mellitus. however, long-term efficacy and safety of these novel modalities still remain a serious question. hereby, we aim to report the one-year follow-up results in the diabetic patients who underwent fetal liver-derived hematopoietic stem cell allotransplantation. fift...

background cleft palate (cp) is a common congenital defect. it makes serious difficulties for cleft-affected children. the gold standard of care is autogenous bone grafting which may cause additional problems in donor site along with disappointing results. tissue engineering is a promising solution for a widespread range of defects and disorders. it is reasonable to utilize this novel technolog...

tissue engineering based on the adipose derived stem cells  promote a strong strategy to propagation of bone, cartilage and fat tissues in the three-dimensional scaffolds, fabricated by combining biological materials with suitable and appropriate growth factors.  in this study, a peo scaffold was used to show that mesenchymal stem cells can attach well; the aim of this study was the investigati...

background:   objective: this study presents an economical and simple co-culture system for pluripotent stem cells generation from neonatal mouse testis   materials and methods: isolated testicular cells were cultured in dmem/f12. characteristics of the isolated cells and obtained es-like cell were immune-cytochemically confirmed by examining the presence of plzf, vimentin, oct4 and nanog prote...

The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between rat intestine decellularized scaffold and human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. Rat large intestine was dissected in fragments and decellularized by physicochemical methods. The scaffolds were loaded by human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells expressing green fluorescent protein. Microscopic sections were prepared fr...

introduction: doxorubicin is frequently used for treatment of several types of cancer. doxorubicin cardiac toxicity has limited the use of this drug. corticosteroids may prevent doxorubicin induced cardiotoxicity. therefore the aim of this study was to evaluate mouse embryonic stem cells derived cardiomyocytes as a model to evaluate the effect of doxorubicin and dexamethasone. methods: mouse em...

the identification of multipotential mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) derived from adult human tissues such as bone marrow and connective tissues has provided exciting prospects for cell-based tissue engineering and regeneration. this review article focuses on the biology of mscs, their differentiation potentials in vitro and in vivo, and their application in tissue engineering. our current unders...
