purpose : our aim was to isolate mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) from mouse umbilical cord and culture them with vitreous body to investigate their capacity to differentiate into lens fiber cells, crystallins are expressed. methods : wharton's jelly is the appropriate source of mscs. after isolation, the cells were cultured and alkaline phosphatase detection kit was used for staining undiffe...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are undifferentiated cells that can differentiate and divide to other cell types. transplantation of these cells to the different organs is used for curing various diseases. objective: the aim of this research was whether mscs transplantation could treat the sterile testes. materials and methods: in this experimental study, donor mscs were isolated from...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have been recently received increasing attention for cell-based therapy, especially in regenerative medicine. however, the low survival rate of these cells restricts their therapeutic applications. it is hypothesized that autophagy might play an important role in cellular homeostasis and survival. this study aims to investigate the regenerative potentia...

background: wound healing of burned skin remains a major goal in public health. previous reports showed that the bone marrow stem cells were potent in keratinization and vascularization of full thickness skin wounds. methods: in this study, mesenchymal stem cells were derived from rat adipose tissues and characterized by flowcytometry. staining methods were used to evaluate their differentiatio...

human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs), which also called mesenchymal stromal cells, are multipotent stem cell. human mscs typically are positive for the surface markers cd44, cd73, cd90, cd105, cd106, and also negative for hematopoietic markers cd34 and cd45.these cells can be isolated from postnatal bone marrow, adipose tissue, placenta, and scalp tissue, as well as from various fetal tissues. ...

in this present study, we examined the differentiation potential of human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (hbmscs) into hepatocytes on a three-dimentional (3d) nanofibrous scaffold formed by poly (ε-caprolactone) (pcl), collagen and polyethersulfone (pes). the nanofiber was prepared by the electrospining technique. hbmscs were isolated using combining gradient density centrifugation ...

objective(s): electrospun nanofibrous mats of poly(lactic acid) (pla) and nanohydroxyapatite (nano-ha) were prepared and proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells on the prepared nanofibers were investigated in this study. materials and methods: pla/nano-ha nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. the effects of process parameters, such as nano-ha concentration, distance, ...

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...

stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (shed) have been introduced recently and  possess characteristics similar to  mesenchymal stem  cells (mscs). because of  their convenient accessibility and safety of harvest, shed can be a preferable source for the ever- increasing mscs’ applications. while they are new, their immunoproperties have not been adequately studied. in this study, we ...
