introduction: the native inability of nervous system to regenerate, encourage researchers to consider neural tissue engineering as a potential treatment for spinal cord injuries. considering the suitable characteristics of induced pluripotent stem cells (ipscs) for tissue regeneration applications, in this study we investigated the adhesion, viability and proliferation of neural progenitors (de...

abstract in this research, the effects of ba with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mg/l) in combination with iba (0, 0.01 and 0.1 mg/l) on bud growth and shoot proliferation and tdz with different concentrations (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 mg/l) in combination with 0 and 0.5 mg/l iba on somatic embryogenesis from different parts of immature cotyledons (proximal, median and distal) w...

background: the complex process of spermatogenesis is regulated by various factors. studies on spermatogonial stem cells have provided a very important tool to improve herd genetic and different field. 0.2 to 0.3 percent of total cells of seminiferous tubules consist of spermatogonial stem cells. to investigate and biomanipulate these cells, first the proliferation and viability rate of cells s...

the influence of explant nodal positions on the in vitro shoot growth and proliferation were studied in the two rose cvs. ‘bianca’ and ‘el torro’. third, fourth and fifth nodal explants were cultured on the modified ms medium supplemented with 1.0 and 5.0 mg/l ba. in both the cultivars, higher rate of proliferation (‘bianca’ 3.75; ‘el torro’ 2.65) were obtained from the explants distal to the a...

objective(s) studies have shown that morphine, in addition to its analgesic properties, has several effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis. there is also evidence that opioid receptors are present on chondrocytes. our main objective in the present study was to investigate the effects of morphine on rat femur growth cartilage. materials and methods this research was carried out on 18 4-week...

background: in the field of cellular therapy, the impact of confluence degree on harvesting or differentiation of bmmscs and the effect of cell-to-cell contact remain controversial. therefore, the effect of confluence on properties of bmmscs was studied and efficiency of confluence-associated osteogenic differentiation was identified. materials and methods: the impact of 20, 50, 70, 80 and 100%...

objective(s):degradation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (s1p), as a bioactive lipid, or deregulation of its production involves in tumor progression, metastasis and chemoresistance. since the tumor progression effects of s1p and its mechanism in chronic lymphoblastic leukemia and non-small cell lung cancer is not fully understood, we investigated the role and one of the mechanisms of s1p in tumor p...
