Periosteum is a source of osteoprogenitor cells and some investigators advocated the effective use of periosteum as a grafting material for the repair of bone and joint defects. In the present study, we showed bone formation induced from cultured periosteum-derived cells (CPDC) in the rat calvarial defect model. Periosteum taken from a rat tibia was immediately placed in culture medium with 10%...

budding is a good method of propagation in the persian walnut (juglans regia l.)., however, success of budding is low due to higher root pressure as well as the presence of phenolic compounds in the xylem sap. this study was conducted to compare various budding methods and cut below budding :union: on two and three-year-old persian walnut under field conditions. the experiment was conducted bas...

We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the article entitled “Interaction Between Breast Cancer Cells and Adipose Tissue Cells Derived from Fat Grafting” by Massa et al. The authors investigated a controversial topic that has polarized plastic surgeons for many years, namely the role of fat grafting in carcinogenesis. In a common in vitro model, undigested adipose tissue, cells of the strom...

Poly-N-isopropylacrylamide was successfully grafted onto a polystyrene cell culture dish and γ-preirradiated in air. In this study, the effect of a γ-pre-irradiation dose of radiation (radiation absorbed dosages of 10, 20, 30, 40 KGy) under appropriate temperature and grafting conditions was investigated. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis showed the existence of the graft pol...

Background: Surgical treatments of vitiligo are punch grafting, blister grafting, flip-top transplantation, split skin grafting, etc aiming at rebuilding of melanocytic population in those patients who do not respond to medical treatment . The objective of this study was determination of efficacy of blister grafting technique in the treatment of vitiligo. Methods: This study was done on 10 pati...

<p>Grafting with cayenne pepper rootstock (<em>Capsicum frutescens</em> L.) and red chili scion annum</em> L) can be used to improve the quality of plants. This study aims determine growth development plants from shoot grafting. The was carried out 3 treatments, namely kontrol (without grafting) (M<sub>o</sub>), treatment 1 (X<sub>1</sub>) fightin...

Current animal models for the evaluation of synthetic grafts are lacking many of the molecular tools and transgenic studies available to other branches of biology. A mouse model of vascular grafting would allow for the study of molecular mechanisms of graft failure, including in the context of clinically relevant disease states. In this study, we comprehensively characterise a sutureless grafti...

Tissue engineering, grafting procedures, regeneration, and tissue remodeling are developing therapeutic modalities with great potential medical value, but these regenerative modalities are not as effective or predictable as clinicians and patients would like. Greater understanding of growth factors, cytokines, extracellular matrix molecules, and their roles in cell-mediated healing processes ha...
