the aim of this study was to isolate mouse embryonic stem cells from late blastocyst stage embryos and to use them as a model system for the study of hematopoietic induction outside the embryo by coculturing of embryonic stem cells with bone marrow stromal cells. blastocyst stage embryos from pregnant nmri mice were obtained and cultured for 1-2 days in dmem medium. the inner cell masses formed...

cumulating evidence points to a key role for cd8+ t cells in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.cd8 expression level was believed to be present constantly on the surface of human peripheral blood t cells. however, it was shown that peripheral blood lymphocytes may be divided by the level of cd8 expression, into cd8+high and cd8+low t cells. now it is well established that the cd8low populat...

objectives: the study of erythropoiesis needs to develop the methods for erythroid progenitor cells (epcs) culture using stem cell potency to differentiate into variety of hematopoietic cells lineages. in this study, we induced differentiation of cord blood stem cells into erythroid progenitor cells in a semisolid culture media. materials and methods: cord blood mononuclear cells were isolate...

calcium crystals are evident in many parts of anther. there is little literature about differentiationof crystal-containing cells and crystal formation during anther development. petunia hybrid grandifloraflower buds collected at different developmental stages were fixed and studied. the results revealed thatyoung anthers are tetrasporangiate and in each of the four corners, the primary parieta...

neural stem cells (nscs) as a heterogeneous multipotent and self- renewal population are found in different areas in the developing mammalian nervous system, as well as the sub-ventricular zone (svz) and the hippocampus of the adult brain. nscs can give rise to neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. the aim of this study was to differentiate neural stem cells into noradrenergic–like cells in...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are multipotent cells that can be collected from different sources. under specific conditions, mscs can be differentiated to tissue specific cells in vitro. human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucmscs) can easily be harvested and cultured in in vitro conditions. production of germ cells from mesenchymal stem cells is a very interesting and prom...

human diploid fibroblast cells produce a spectrum of necessary growth factors and extracellular matrix (ecm) components essential for growth and proliferation of a variety of other cell types. in this study, the effect of five human embryonic fibroblast cell lines, isolated from liver, lung, skin and foreskin tissues, was investigated. a coculture system analyse was employed to cloning efficien...

El objetivo fue la evaluación del color como técnica rápida para identificación de muestras suelos urbanos contaminados con metales pesados en Ciudad México. Las concentraciones los se midieron por fluorescencia rayos X, y el determinó las tablas Munsell un colorímetro. A partir valores Hue, Value Croma formaron cinco grupos suelo color: I, Café rojizo oscuro, 5YR 4/2; II, Gris 7.5YR 4/1; III, ...
