objective(s): in the past few decades, variety of foetal, embryonic and adult stem and progenitor cells have been tried with conflicting outcome for cell therapy of central nervous system injury and diseases. cellular characteristics and functional plasticity of globose basal stem cells (gbcs) residing in the olfactory epithelium of rat olfactory mucosa have not been studied in the past by the ...

introduction:first, definition the stem cell refers to those cells that are still not clear and are not equipped for a particular task. these cells have proliferative properties and  ability to differentiate into other types of cells have become. this characteristic of stem cells to self-directed has absorbed professional opinion that extensive research is done in this regard. nowadays, stem ce...

objective: in this investigation murine embryonic stem (es) cells were differentiated into endothelial cells. materials and methods: murine es cells (cce cell line) exposed to alpha-mem medium containing 10% fbs for 4 days. then obtained flk-1 (flk-1: vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2) positive cells were cultuted in endothelial growth medium-2 (egm-2) until the last day of experime...

conclusions large amounts of preclinical studies have been made of stem cells and there is an increasing interest to perform these studies within the human population but preclinical studies are insufficient; therefore, much more and efficient studies should be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stem cells. context musculoskeletal injuries may be painful, troublesome, life limitin...

the purpose of this review is to gain an overview of the applications of the dental pulp stem cells (dpscs) in the treatment of various medical diseases. stem cells have the capacity to differentiate and regenerate into various tissues. dpscs are the adult   stem cells that reside in the cell rich zone of the dental pulp. these are the multipotent cells that can be explained by their embryonic ...

The embryonic microenvironment is well known to be non-permissive for tumor development because early developmental signals naturally suppress the expression of proto-oncogenes. In an analogous manner, mimicking an early embryonic environment during embryonic stem cell culture has been shown to suppress oncogenic phenotypes of cancer cells. Exosomes derived from human embryonic stem cells harbo...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are important candidates for msc-based cellular therapy. current paradigm states that mscs support local progenitor cells in damaged tissue through paracrine signaling. therefore, study of paracrine effects and secretome of mscs could lead to the appreciation of mechanisms and molecules associated with the therapeutic effects of these cells. this study ...
