objective(s): ex vivo expansion of hematopoitic stem cells is an alternative way to increase umbilical cord blood (ucb)-cd34+ cells for bone marrow transplantation. for this purpose demineralized bone matrix (dbm) and mineralized bone allograft (mba) as two scaffolds based on bone matrix and stem cell niche, were simultaneously used to enhance the effect of human mesenchymal progenitor cells (m...

Objective(s): Breast cancer imposes a highest rate of malignancy among the women all around the world. Chitin and its derivatives such as D-glucosamine-carboxymethyl chitin and Di-hydroxy propyl chitin have immune-modulating effects and influence on innate and acquisitive immunity which lead to cell activity enhancement. The aim of this study was investigating the effect ...
