[ 1 ] - Assessment of In Vitro-Derived Germ Cells Contribution in Oogenesis in Female Mice Ovaries

Introduction: Contrary to a common belief, most mammalian females lose the ability of Germ Cell (GC) renewal and oogenesis during fetal life. Although, it has been claimed that germ line stem cells preserve oogenesis in postnatal mouse ovaries, that postnatal oogenesis keeps producing functional and sufficient GCs in the case of infertility (caused by different reasons) is doubtful. On the othe...

[ 2 ] - Repair of Spinal Cord Injury by Co-Transplantation of embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neuron and Olfactory Ensheathing Cell

Background: The failure of regeneration after spinal cord injury (SCI) has been attributed to axonal demyelination and neuronal death. Cellular replacement and white matter regeneration are both necessary for SCI repair. In this study, we evaluated the co-transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells (OEC) and embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived motor neurons (ESMN) on contused SCI. Methods: OEC...
