background  the mammary gland in humans is a dynamic organ that undergoes significant developmental changes during pregnancy, lactation, and involution. stem cells derived from human breast milk possess the adult stem cell-like characteristics such as self-renewal, proliferative and differentiate potential. this source of stem cells avoids invasive procedures and the ethical controversy of embr...

understanding the molecular mechanisms in regeneration could help the stem cell therapists to improve the clinical practices and could be considered a major milestone in the translation of stem cell research to clinics. chemokines have been described as one of the most significant singling networks in stem cells homing and regeneration of damaged organs. cxcr4/cxcl12 has been known as a key pla...

stem cell-based therapy has great potential in treating health conditions including cardiovascular, autoimmune, type i diabetes, neurodegenerative and bone and cartilage diseases also in spinal cord injuries, malformations and cancer. in addition to their potential use to treat systemic diseases, stem cell-based therapy also provides a powerful tool to treat oral and dental diseases such as cra...

stem cells are self-renewing and undifferentiated cell types that can be differentiate into functional cells. stem cells can be classified into two main types based on their source of origin: embryonic and adult stem cells. stem cells also classified based on the range of differentiation potentials into totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent, and unipotent. multipotent stem cells have the ability...

background: embryonic stem cells (esc) are pluripotent cells which have been used as a model to study the mechanism that control the embryogenesis and early mammalian development in vitro. the aim of this study was to isolate and produce embryonic stem cells from late blastocyst stage embryos in mice. materials and methods: blastocyst stage embryos from pregnant nmri mice were obtained and cult...

introduction: the aim of this study was evaluate the ability of notochord to induce neural induction and/or differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cell to neuron and motor neuron, respectively. methods: in order to produce embryoid bodies, es cells line royan b1 were grown in suspension in the absence of lif for 4 days. ebs were divided into 4 groups. ebs in group 1 & 2 were further cultured i...

previous studies have demonstrated the potential of monotherapy with either mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) or estrogen in autoimmune and cuprizone models of multiple sclerosis (ms). the aim of this study was to examine the effects of co-administration of 17β-estradiol (e2) and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (adscs) on remyelination of corpus callosum axons in a cuprizone model of ms. for...

background: human umbilical cord blood (hucb) is an acceptable and readily accessible source of stem cells. there is an ongoing interest in cord blood stem cell therapies; however, little is known about the possible unfavorable effects of laboratory modifications on the isolated hucb cells. the involvement of mirnas in several biological processes has been shown. the aim of this study was to ev...
