Differentiation of Adipose-derived Stem Cells into Schwann Cell Phenotype in Comparison with Bone Marrow Stem Cells
Objective(s) Bone marrow is the traditional source of human multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), but adipose tissue appears to be an alternative and more readily available source. In this study, rat adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were induced to differentiate into Schwann-like cells and compared with rat bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) for their Schwann-like cells differentiation pote...
متن کاملEquine Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Retain a Pericyte-Like Phenotype
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have been used in human and equine regenerative medicine, and interest in exploiting their potential has increased dramatically over the years. Despite significant effort to characterize equine MSCs, the actual origin of these cells and how much of their native phenotype is maintained in culture have not been determined. In this study, we investigated the r...
متن کاملImmortalization and transformation of human cells.
The disruption of homeostatic mechanisms that regulate normal cell growth and proliferation is a hallmark of cancer. Experimentally, many of the same genetic changes that lead to abnormal cell proliferation conspire to confer replicative immortality upon cells in culture. Correspondingly, several lines of evidence implicate cellular immortalization as a prerequisite for cell transformation. Rec...
متن کاملiTRAQ-based proteomics profiling of Schwann cells before and after peripheral nerve injury
Objective(s): Schwann cells (SCs) have a wide range of applications as seed cells in the treatment of nerve injury during transplantation. However, there has been no report yet on kinds of proteomics changes that occur in Schwann cells before and after peripheral nerve injury.Materials and Methods: Activated Schwann cells (ASCs) and normal Schwann cells (NSCs) were obtained from adult Wistar ra...
متن کاملSchwann cells stimulated to proliferate in the absence of neurons retain full functional capability.
Schwann cells from neonatal rat sciatic nerve can be maintained and grown in culture in the absence of neurons. We are interested in substantially expanding such cultures for use in the study of Schwann cells, their growth responses, and their interactions with neurons. However, it was important to determine if expanded cell populations retained their distinguishing biological properties and th...
