stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (shed) have been introduced recently and  possess characteristics similar to  mesenchymal stem  cells (mscs). because of  their convenient accessibility and safety of harvest, shed can be a preferable source for the ever- increasing mscs’ applications. while they are new, their immunoproperties have not been adequately studied. in this study, we ...

s:3604:"During pregnancy, the placenta delivers "cord blood" to the baby through the umbilical cord serving as a lifeline of nourishment from the mother to baby. At birth, "cord blood" remains in the umbilical cord and placenta and until recently, had typically been discarded. The tragedy of this practice is that "cord blood" contains very special cells called "stem cells". Recent advances in m...

Neural stem cells (NSCs) as a heterogeneous multipotent and self- renewal population are found in different areas in the developing mammalian nervous system, as well as the sub-ventricular zone (SVZ) and the hippocampus of the adult brain. NSCs can give rise to neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. The aim of this study was to differentiate neural stem cells into noradrenergic–like cells in...
