[ 1 ] - Isolation and culture of human endometrial derived cells as an in vitro model for future implantation studies

Introduction:  Monthly regeneration of endometrium after cyclical mensturation confirmed the ability of specific population of the cells that presence in the basalis layer and undergone consecutive hormonal changes that could prepared the endometrial layer for probable implantation. These cells, known as, stem cell. The aim of this study was the isolation and culture of human endometrial derive...

[ 2 ] - Vitamin E and Selenium Facilitate the Osteogenesis and Adipogenesis of the Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells

Background and Aims: Previous studies have shown that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/ stromal cells are one of the sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with the capacity to differentiate into various mesodermal cell lineages. MSCs with cytokines secretion capability, which contributes to repair damaged tissues have gained wide credence for future cell-based therapeutic applications. In th...

[ 3 ] - Induced Chondrogenic Differentiation of hESCs by hESC-Derived MSCs Conditioned Medium and Sequential 3D-2D Culture System

Background and Aims: It has been proven that human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) conditioned medium (hMSCs-CM) can influence human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) chondrogenic differentiation. In this study, we hypothesized that conditioned medium (CM) from hESCs-derived MSCs in a sequential 3D-2D culture system could facilitate the induction of chondrogenesis in hESCs. Materials and Methods: CM ...
