background: amniotic membrane derived stem cells (amscs) have considerable advantages to use in regenerative medicine and their anti- inflammatory effects, growth factor secretion and differentiation potential make them suitable candidates for stem cell therapy of nervous system. the developing and neonatal brain contains a spectrum of growth factors to direct development of endogenous and dono...

This article evaluates the effect of membrane active channel-forming polyene antibiotic (PA) of levorin and its alkyl derivatives on the muscle performance. The membrane channels of muscle cells are capable to transport ions of potassium, sodium, and calcium. In the period of an intensive muscle exercise, the necessity for organic substrates increases and these channels start to work with the g...

cell replacement therapy has provided the basis for future clinical applications to treat central nervous system injuries fallowing by car accidents. induced functional neurons are an option for replacing the lost neurons. the ability to monitor changes in membrane potential is a useful tool for studying neuronal function, but there are only limited options available at present. here, investiga...

Background: Sperm cryopreservation has been associated with over production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Buffalo spermatozoa are susceptible to ROS inducing damages due to insufficient level of cytoplsmic antioxidant along with high amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids composition in membrane structure. Therefore, appropriate antioxidant in buffalo cryopreservation extender would reduce ...

a palladium composite membrane was prepared via electroless plating technique using organic-inorganic method during activation process. the ceramic support surface was modified by two tio2-boehmite and one γ-alumina layers to avoid pd penetration in support pores. thin and defect-free pd composite membrane was obtained by creating a relative smoothness on the ceramic support and using pd nanopa...
