this investigation aimed to examine the protective function of vitamin e on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) treated with cadmium chloride. rat bone marrow mscs were extracted using flashing-out and cultured in dmem containing 10% fbs and 100 u/ml pen/strep. at the end of the third passage, cells were divided into 4 groups including control, cadmium chloride, cadmium chloride + vit...

background: the present study investigated the functional maturity of oligodendrocyte derived from rat bone marrow stromal cells (bmsc). methods: the bmsc were isolated from female sprague-dawley rats and evaluated for different markers, such as fibronectin, cd106, cd90, oct-4 and cd45. transdifferentiation of olc from bmsc was obtained by exposing the bmsc to dmso and 1 µm all-trans-retinoic a...

background: recent reports demonstrated that intravenous route as a minimally invasive method, similar to direct injection, is suitable for bone marrow stromal cell (bmsc) transplantation. in this study, we made a comparison of intraspinal and intravenous route of bmsc administration to repair injured spinal cord tissue. methods: six groups of adult female rats were used in this study. laminect...

Stem cells, which resemble white blood cells with very small nuclei and cytoplasm, have the capacity to differentiate into any of the mature blood cells. Very primitive, pleuripotent stem cells have the capability of differentiation into other cell types, such as heart and nerve, as well. Since 1968, stem cells in bone marrow have been used in treatment of leukemias, lymphomas, and immune defic...

Objective- To evaluate growth characteristics and differentiation capacity of equine mesenchymal stem cell (eMSCs) derived from bone marrow (BM). Study design- In vitro experimental study. Animals- Four young adult horses (2-5 years old) Procedure- Cell morphology and growth characteristics of eMSCs harvested from BM were evaluated in standard culture conditions. eMSCs in passage 3 were subj...

OBJECTIVE Experimental and clinical studies have suggested that intramyocardial bone marrow stem cell transplantation combined with coronary artery bypass grafting might improve left ventricular function in the setting of chronic ischemic heart disease. We therefore conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of available publications regarding the efficacy and safety of intramyocardial bon...

Abstract Although multiple studies have investigated the mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells (MSCs) that give rise to mature bone marrow, high heterogeneity in their morphologies properties causes difficulties molecular separation of distinct populations. In this study, by taking advantage resolution single cell transcriptome, we analyzed Sca-1 PDGFR-? fraction mouse marrow tissue. The transc...

the stem cells can be considered as the miracle of creation, because, they are a major reservoir of the bioactive factors, molecules and cells. these reservoir cells play a major role in development and growth of the tissues and organs. regardless of the differences in differentiation capacity of embryonic and adult stem cells, both the cells are rich sources of stem cells with therapeutic appl...
