OBJECTIVE Experimental and clinical studies have suggested that intramyocardial bone marrow stem cell transplantation combined with coronary artery bypass grafting might improve left ventricular function in the setting of chronic ischemic heart disease. We therefore conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of available publications regarding the efficacy and safety of intramyocardial bon...

Rearing bee queens is almost done utilizing grafting young larvae while the effects of using old after collection royal jelly on quality are not known. In fact, production depends grafting, then discarding to collect jelly. This study aimed investigate this point by removing them from their original cells without food. Larvae at age about 2 days were grafted into plastic queen cell cups (select...

Fifty patients with Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) underwent surgery including release of limb, oral, anal, eye and penile contractures and treatment of chronic skin ulceration or skin tumours. Correction of contractures involves extensive release of skin and underlying tissues, with split skin grafting of secondary defects. Specific regions are discussed. Recurrence is inevitable due t...

Phosphate groups chemically grafted onto polymer substrates can be used as biomimetic analogs for in vitro studying of function of biomacromolecules and also as tissue substitutes in clinical conditions of organ loss. Despite this inspiration, studies correlating effect of degree of phosphate grafting of a polymer on fabrication and biological properties of polymers are lacking. In this work, N...

In the present study, we have characterized an atraumatic grafting technique which permits multiple, segmental, and lamina-specific injections into cervical or lumbar spinal cord. Cell injections were performed in spinally mounted rats of different ages and spinal cord size, using a micromanipulator and glass microcapillary connected to a digital microinjector. For grafting, we used human neuro...

Grafting is a technique applied to considerable number of crops, with tomato standing out. However, this limited by the obtaining unfunctional grafts, which decrease success rate and therefore benefits achieved. The aim work was analyze failure in intraspecific grafting plants, focusing on tissue development, cell wall defense reactions, distribution starch soluble sugars at graft junction. aut...

In our study, we aimed to synthesize novel grafted hyaluronic acid with cationic biodegradable polymer, poly (N-vinyl imidazole) (PVI), through free radical polymerization using potassium persulfate as initiator. The effect of various grafting factors including initiator and monomer concentrations, reaction time and temperature was studied on the percentage of grafting parameters such as; graft...

The present study investigates whether transplantation of NSCs treated with T3 alone (T3/NSCs), or in conjunction with GDNF gene (GDNF-T3/NSCs), provides a better therapeutic effect than NSCs for chronic EAE. EAE rats were, respectively, injected with NSCs, T3/NSCs, GDNF-T3/NSCs, and saline at 10 days and sacrificed at 60 days after EAE immunization. The three cell grafted groups showed a signi...

Fragments of testis tissue from immature animals grow and develop spermatogenesis when grafted onto subcutaneous areas of immunodeficient mice. The same results are obtained when dissociated cells from immature testes of rodents are injected into the subcutis of nude mice. Those cells reconstitute seminiferous tubules and facilitate spermatogenesis. We compared these two methods, tissue graftin...
