The Viability of Human Testis-Derived Cells on Human Serum Albumin-Based Scaffold as An Artificial Male Germ Cell Niche
Azoospermia is one of the challenging disorders affecting couples who are afflicted with infertility. Human testisderivedcells (hTCs) are suitable candidates for the initiation of in-vitro spermatogenesis for these types of patients.The current study aimed to assess the proliferation of hTCs through the cell culture on the three-dimensional (3D) porousscaffolds. Cells harveste...
متن کاملRevolutionizing Tissue Engineering through Mirroring Cell Niche and Application of Natural Compounds
onsidering the high prevalence of severe organ failures due to the cancer, congenital anomaly, or trauma, and the consequent needs for tissue transplantation, deficiencies in tissues and organs are a huge challenge for regenerative medicine at the moment. More than 40 years have passed since the term ‘tissue engineering’ was created as a new th...
متن کاملEngineering Artificial Cell Membranes
Growth and division are essential biological processes of cellular life. A crucial question concerning the origin of cellular life is how primitive cells (protocells) lacking complex biological machinery could grow and divide. To address this question, we first developed an effective method for preparing large monodisperse (uniform-sized) vesicles through a combination of extrusion and large-po...
متن کاملStem cell niche engineering through droplet microfluidics.
Stem cells reside in complex niches in which their behaviour is tightly regulated by various biochemical and biophysical signals. In order to unveil some of the crucial stem cell-niche interactions and expedite the implementation of stem cells in clinical and pharmaceutical applications, in vitro methodologies are being developed to reconstruct key features of stem cell niches. Recently, drople...
متن کاملLive Tissue Imaging to Elucidate Mechanical Modulation of Stem Cell Niche Quiescence
: The periosteum, a composite cellular connective tissue, bounds all nonarticular bone surfaces. Like Velcro, collagenous Sharpey's fibers anchor the periosteum in a prestressed state to the underlying bone. The periosteum provides a niche for mesenchymal stem cells. Periosteal lifting, as well as injury, causes cells residing in the periosteum (PDCs) to change from an immobile, quiescent state...
