Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurologic disorder that have a significant impact on quality of life, life expectancy, and economic burden. SCI leads to irreversible neuronal loss and ultimately leads to paralysis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising source for cellular therapy because they have possessed the capacity of self-renewal and differentiation to several distinct mesenchymal ...

human adipose tissue represents an abundant, practical and appealing source of donor tissue for autologous cell replacement. recent findings have shown that stem cells within the stromalvascular fraction of adipose tissue display a multilineage developmental potential. adipose tissue-derived stem cells can be differentiated towards adipogenic, osteogenic, chondrogenic,myogenic and neurogenic li...

in cell therapy and regenerative medicine, a reliable source of stem cells together with cytokine growth factors and biomaterial scaffolds seem necessary. as adipose tissue is easy accessible and is abundant source of adult stem cells and can differentiate along multiple lineages, it can be considered as a good candidate in aesthetic medicine. the clinical application of adipose-derived stem ce...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of low-level laser irradiation on the proliferation and possible nuclear morphological changes of mouse mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS Mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow and adipose tissue were submitted to two applications (T0 and T48 hours) of low-level laser irradiation (660 nm; doses of 0.5 and 1.0 J/cm2). The trypan blue assay was used to ev...

introduction: mesenchymal stem cells can be isolated from adult tissues, such as the adipose tissue, or other sources. among all these sources, adipose tissue because of easy access, and placenta due to its immunomodulatory properties, in addition to another useful properties, were attracted more attention to themselves. isolation and comparing these two different sources can help us for access...

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...

The potential use of stem cell based therapies for the repair and regeneration of various tissues offers a paradigm shift that may provide alternative therapeutic solutions for a number of diseases. The use of either embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells in clinical situations is limited due to cell regulations and to technical and ethical considerations involved in gene...

Adult or somatic stem cells hold great promise for tissue regeneration. Currently, one major scientific interest is focused on the basic biology and clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells. Adipose tissue-derived stem cells share similar characteristics with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, but have some advantages including harvesting through a less invasive surgical procedure. Moreo...

The use of stem cells is a breakthrough in medical biotechnology which brings regenerative therapy into new era. Over the past several decades, had been widely used as and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) emerged promising therapeutic option. Currently are effective agents againts diseases due to their tissue protective repair mechanisms. This effect largely biomolecular properties including secre...
