Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the percentage of the stem cells population in human endometrial tissue sections and cultured cells at fourth passage. Methods: Human endometrial specimens were divided into two parts, one part for morphological studies and the other part for in vitro culture. Full thickness of human normal endometrial sections and cultured endometrial cells ...

The glycolipids of two clonal lines astroblasts, NN clone and C6 clone, were studied. Glucosylceramide and lactosylceramide were present at very low levels in both clones, but the most common myelin glycolipids galactosylceramide and sulfatide, were not detected. The ganglioside pattern of these cells was rather simple, with GM3 as main compoenent, accompained in one clone by GD3. These results...

Abstract Background 3-dimensional (3D) cultured tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) showed higher therapeutic efficacy in murine colitis model than conventional 2D-cultured TMSCs via increased anti-inflammatory cytokine expression. Here, we evaluated the in-vivo localization and formation of 3D-cultured using electron microscopy. Methods Chronic mouse was induced by oral administratio...

Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus are two important fish species that widely consumed in many parts of the world. This study investigated nutritional composition, fatty acid profiles organoleptic evaluation these raised under wild pond-cultured systems. Five samples each were randomly collected from Ashaka Town, Delta State, Nigeria. The proximate composition was determined using sta...

An efficient procedure for shoot regeneration was obtained by endosperm culture in Actinidia deliciosa cv. Hayward. Mature endosperm cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/l 2,4-D and 5 mg/l kinetin developed callus with 80% efficiency. Callus was transferred on MS medium containing different plant growth regulators (2,4-D, TDZ, IAA, NAA, BAP, kinetin, 2iP) for regeneration. There were si...

Introduction: Cell transplantation is one of the main strategies for spinal cord injury repair. As OECs of the olfactory mucosa can be obtained by simple biopsy in all individuals without affecting their smell sensation, OECs considered as a promising candidate for autologous transplantation in the nervous system injury, especially for spinal cord repair. Thereby in the current study OECs wer...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) may develop into any form of cell and are being intensively investigated. The influence on iPSCs nanostructures generated using two-dimensional colloidal arrays was examined in this study. Colloidal were formed the following procedure. First, core–shell colloids adsorbed onto a glass substrate layer-by-layer method. Second, immobilized via thermal fusion. ...

Biofilms are extracellular constituents composed of polysaccharides and other substances necessary for bacteria to defend themselves against foreign enemies. Amylase Streptococcus pyogenes is an enzyme that degrades produces nutrients invasion epithelial cells. S. salivarius oral commensal bacterium shows antibacterial activity pyogenes. We investigated the relationship between determine whethe...
