background: the present study investigated the functional maturity of oligodendrocyte derived from rat bone marrow stromal cells (bmsc). methods: the bmsc were isolated from female sprague-dawley rats and evaluated for different markers, such as fibronectin, cd106, cd90, oct-4 and cd45. transdifferentiation of olc from bmsc was obtained by exposing the bmsc to dmso and 1 µm all-trans-retinoic a...

The manipulation of cell surfaces in anchorage-dependent cells can help overcome difficulties presented during handling and application. Silica-based protective mechanisms existing free-floating microorganisms may be used as inspiration for sustaining human survival suspension. Gathering on this, herein adipose-derived mesenchymal stem (hASCs) are partially coated with a hard silica layer that ...

background: the anticancer agent imatinib (im) is a small molecular analog ofatp that inhibits tyrosine kinase activity of platelet derived growth factors (pdgfs)and stem cell factor (scf) receptor in cancer cells. however these factors have a keyrole in regulating growth and development of normal sertoli, leydig and germcells.objective: the aim of this study was to determine cell viability, pd...

stem cell-based therapies have recently opened up new horizons for treatment of various types of diseases including diabetes mellitus. however, long-term efficacy and safety of these novel modalities still remain a serious question. hereby, we aim to report the one-year follow-up results in the diabetic patients who underwent fetal liver-derived hematopoietic stem cell allotransplantation. fift...

Chondrocytes were isolated from adult laryngeal cartilage by an enzymic procedure that included 6 h digestion with collagenase. The level of 35SO4(2-) incorporation into cetylpyridinium chloride-precipitable material by these cells depended upon the subsequent culturing conditions. Suspension cultures incorporated more 35SO4(2-)/cell than monolayer cultures. Hyaluronic acid in the medium inhibi...

The establishment of cell suspension culture from the callus of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) breeding lines and plant regeneration from suspension-derived callus are described in this study. Using different concentrations and combinations of BAP and 2,4-D, the growth patterns of cell suspension cultures were examined during a range of culture periods (0, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 days). In all...

Plant cell cultures could be used as an important tool for biochemical production, ranging from natural pigments to pharmaceutical products. Anthocyanin is affected by a variety of factors. Light, an important plant environmental factor, influences the anthocyanin production in vegetative plant tissues. Here, we have investigated the influence of the blue laser-diode (BLD) and red laser-He Ne (...

in this study, our aim was to produce a generation of gmp-grade adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. according to our results, we fulfill to establish consistent and also reproducible current good manufacturing practice (cgmp) compliant adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from five female donors. the isolated cells were cultured in dmem supplemented...
