Thoracic duct changes in schistosomal hepatic fibrosis.
The changes in the thoracic duct were studied in schistosomatic hepatic fibrosis, particularly in cases with ascites. The postmortem findings, lymphangiography, and clinical thoracic duct cannulation showed that, particularly in cases with ascites, the thoracic duct is dilated, pressure within is raised, and the lymph flow is increased. The significance of these findings is discussed in relatio...
متن کاملTherapeutic Benefit of Intravenous Administration of Human Umbilical Cord Blood- Mononuclear Cells Following Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Rat
Objective(s) Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) is now considered as a valuable source for stem cell–based therapies. Previous studies showed that intravascular injection of the HUCB significantly improves neurological functional recovery in a rat model of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). In the present study, we hypothesize transplanted HUCB derived mononuclear cells (UC-MCs) can decrease injur...
متن کاملHuman umbilical cord blood-derived mononuclear cell transplantation for umbilical hernia and hepatic hydrothorax in primary biliary cirrhosis
Cell therapy was proposed as a potential treatment intervention for liver cirrhosis recently due to the fact that the therapeutic protocol for primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-associated refractory umbilical hernia and hepatic hydrothorax is not well defined currently. We report herein the case of a 58-year-old woman who received routine treatments for PBC, which developed into an incarcerated h...
متن کاملHuman umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells ameliorate psoriasis-like skin inflammation in mice
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) inhibit the proliferation or activation of lymphocytes, and their inhibitory effects do not require human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matching because MSCs express low levels of HLA molecules. Therefore, MSCs may be able to regulate immune responses. In this study, we determined whether MSCs could inhibit psoriasis-like skin inflammation in mice. After induction of pso...
متن کاملMesenchymal stem cells from human umbilical cord ameliorate testicular dysfunction in a male rat hypogonadism model
Androgen deficiency is a physical disorder that not only affects adults but can also jeopardize children's health. Because there are many disadvantages to using traditional androgen replacement therapy, we have herein attempted to explore the use of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of androgen deficiency. We transplanted CM-Dil-labeled human umbilical cord mesenchym...
