چکیده

Abstract Based on the unique capacity of the rodent prostate to undergo seemingly endless rounds of androgen cycling in response to castration and androgen addback, the prostate has been proposed to contain long-term self-renewing stem cells. However the prospective isolation and characterization of stem-like cells from rodent and human prostate tissue has only been described over the last 2 decades. Several models of epithelial homeostasis in the adult prostate have been proposed based on either the presence of a multipotent tissue stem cell that differentiates through a series of intermediate developmental stages or the coexistence of Chapter 2 Isolation and Characterization of Prostate Stem Cells

Isolation and in vitro Characterization of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from the Pulp Tissue of Human Third Molar Tooth

Background: It is still controversial that the stem cells isolated from human dental pulp meets the criteria for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of the present study was to examine whether or not they are MSCs, or are distinct stem cells population residing in tooth pulp. Methods: Adherent fibroblastic cells in the culture of pulp tissue from human third molars were propagated through se...

Isolation, characterization and transduction of canine bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (cBM-MSCs)

BACKGROUND: Stem cell therapy in small animal medicineis still in its infancy and few in vitro and in vivo research projectsregarding animal Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have beencarried out. On the other hand, Cell tracking is the first step of thecell-based therapies and is essential to recognize cell fate posttransplantation. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was toisolate, characterize, an...
