stem cell research has obtained much prominence in recent years for its therapeutic potential in dealing with serious diseases, many of which are essentially incurable by routine therapies. mesenchymal stem cells with pluripotency and immunomodulatory properties are suitable candidates for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. today, nanofibrous scaffolds are widely used in tissue engin...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. the aim of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of transplanted human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stromal cells (ucb-msc) derived neural progenitor cell (mdnpc) in eae, an experimental model of ms. to initiate neuronal differentiation of ucb-mscs, the pre-inductio...

conclusions the results of this study showed that the meticulous microsurgical nerve repair, which was performed using the vein tubulization induced significantly better sciatic nerve regeneration. however, the addition of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell to vein conduit failed to promote any significant changes in regeneration outcome. results all animals tolerated the surgical procedures and...

objective(s): in this study, the effect of electrospun fiber orientation on proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) was evaluated. materials and methods: aligned and random nanocomposite nanofibrous scaffolds were electrospun from polylactic acid (pla), poly (vinyl alcohol) (pva) and calcium carbonate nanoparticles (ncap). the surface morphology of prepared nanofibrou...
