umbilical cord blood (ucb) has been used for transplantation in the treatment of hematologic disorders as a source of hematopoietic stem cells (hscs). because of insufficient number of cord blood cd34+ cells, the expansion of these cells seems to be important for clinical application. mesenchymal stromal cells (mscs), playing an important role in hscs maintenance, were used as feeder layer. apo...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are easily accessible and safe for regenerative medicine. MSCs exert trophic, immunomodulatory, anti-apoptotic, and tissue regeneration effects in a variety of tissues and organs, but their entity remains an enigma. Because MSCs are generally harvested from mesenchymal tissues, such as bone marrow, adipose tissue, or umbilical cord as adherent cells, MSCs comprise ...

purpose: to separate and characterize orbital fat-derived stem cells (ofscs) and compare its cellular and molecular properties with those of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ascs). methods: stem cells from orbital fat, abdominal fat and bone marrow aspirates have been isolated. we assessed stem cell specific cell surface markers using cytometry, ...

This study is the first documentation of the isolation and extensive characterization of mesenchymal stem cells from canine adipose tissue. Methods previously used by our group to isolate and differentiate human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAD-MSCs) have been modified and optimized for derivation of similar cells from canine adipose tissues. The canine adipose tissue-derived mesench...

Numerous studies have been reported about the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into almost every cell type found in craniofacial tissues, such as bone, cartilage, tendon, ligament, muscle etc. Using MSCs as a cell source to engineer craniofacial tissue is becoming feasible. Some effects have been made to bridge the fundamental science and clinical application. Meanwhile, novel f...

Differentiation of derived from in vitro-incubated adult human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), isolated bone marrow, cartilage and adipose tissue, respectively, by application appropriate incubation conditions, to osteoclasts, was investigated proved. The current results show the importance changes mitochondrial dynamics about differentiation male germ (spermatogonia) mature functional activity ...

conclusions our data suggest that preconditioning with 5 μm h2o2 + 0.5% fbs and 10 μm h2o2 + 5% fbs improved cell proliferation and viability. however, the mechanisms related to protective properties of preconditioning and using this strategy in stem cell therapy requires more research. background mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) survival decreased following in vivo injection and its application h...

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 ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or adult multipotent progenitor with the ability to self-renew and differentiate, are extracted from a variety of tissues, including bone marrow, adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood, Wharton’s jelly, tooth pulp, menstrual others. Since they multipotent, cultured MSCs can differentiate into adipogenic, chondrogenic, osteogenic lineages after being isolated. Due the...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide a novel option in cellular therapy and tissue engineering. Recent studies indicated that it is possible to obtain MSCs from peripheral blood by attachment ability to plastic surface. To evaluate adherent cells derived from peripheral blood, their expression profile and surface markers were investigated. The results of RT-PCR indicated that these cells expre...
