Adipose tissue may represent a potential source of adult stem cells for tissue engineering applications in veterinary medicine. It can be obtained in large quantities, under local anesthesia, and with minimal discomfort. In this study, canine adipose tissue was obtained by biopsy from subcutaneous adipose tissue or by suction-assisted lipectomy (i.e., liposuction). Adipose tissue was processed ...

Human adipose-derived stem cells have shown chondrogenic differentiation potential in cartilage tissue engineering in combination with natural and synthetic biomaterials. In the present study, we hypothesized that porous aqueous-derived silk protein scaffolds would be suitable for chondrogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells. Human adipose-derived stem cells were cultured up...

carpal chip fractures are common causes of lameness in racehorses. due to disadvantages in surgical management, adjuvant treatment modalities are usually necessary. adipose-derived stem cells (adscs) have the potential to differentiate into other cell types including bone and cartilage cells. adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (svf) is produced during adscs isolation from adipose tissue....

Neuroinflammation has a significant role in induce of Multiple sclerosis (MS) many approaches have been used to treat MS, but none of these methods have not been able to fully improve. One of the methods can suppress inflammation and regenerate the nervous system is the use of cell therapy. Using cell therapy in pre-clinic phase can be realized, it's mechanism and potency to suppress neuroinfla...

objective: micrornas (mirnas) are noncoding rnas that function as key regulators of diverse biological activities such as cellular metabolism, cell proliferation and cell cycle regulation. recent studies have indicated the high potential of these small molecules to control stem cell differentiation into desired cells. the aim of present study is to investigate the possible effect of let-7f on e...

Objective(s) Bone marrow is the traditional source of human multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), but adipose tissue appears to be an alternative and more readily available source. In this study, rat adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were induced to differentiate into Schwann-like cells and compared with rat bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) for their Schwann-like cells differentiation pote...

objective(s): studies have confirmed that microgravity, as a mechanical factor, influences both differentiation and function of mesenchymal stem cells. here we investigated the effects of simulated microgravity on neural differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (adscs). materials and methods:we have used a fast rotating clinostat (clinorotation) to simulate microgravity condition. re...

Background Bone marrow and adipose tissue are two main sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Some of studies suggest that there are some differences in gene expression profile of MSCs-derived from various tissues. To investigate gene expression profile by qRT-PCR, an appropriate reference gene with stable expression level should be chosen for normalizing data.  This study was designed to e...

background: recently, tissue engineering has developed approaches for repair and restoration of damaged skeletal system based on different scaffolds and cells. this study evaluated the ability of differentiated osteoblasts from adipose‑derived stem cells (adscs) seeded into hydroxyapatite/ tricalcium phosphate (ha‑tcp) to repair bone. methods: in this study, adscs of 6 canines were seeded in ha...

background: although cervical cancer mortality has reduced during last years, but it is still leading cause of mortality among women. many efforts have performed to develop new drugs and strategy to cure cervical cancer. mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have many advantages that make them a suitable choice as a cell therapeutic agent in cancer treatment. there are different transfection methods fo...
