Objective- To evaluate growth characteristics and differentiation capacity of equine mesenchymal stem cell (eMSCs) derived from bone marrow (BM). Study design- In vitro experimental study. Animals- Four young adult horses (2-5 years old) Procedure- Cell morphology and growth characteristics of eMSCs harvested from BM were evaluated in standard culture conditions. eMSCs in passage 3 were subj...

Clinical observations show that the current spinal fusion with internal fixation has a nonfusion rate of 5%-35%; however, methods to promote are limited. This study aimed investigate role SDF-1-induced directional chemotaxis BMSCs in bone marrow chimera intervertebral mouse model. were isolated from and identified by detecting CD44/CD34 positive cells. (GFP-BMSCs) labeled GFP for tracking vivo....

objective: the exfoliated human deciduous tooth (shed) contain multipotent stem cells that identified to be a population of highly proliferative and clonogenic .these cells are capable of differentiating into a variety of cell types including neural cells, adipocytes, and odontoblasts. material and methods: normal exfoliated human deciduous incisors collected from six- to nine-years-old childre...

OBJECTIVES To examine the effect of free radicals from peroxidized oil and the role of albumin on the passage of radicals. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING Clinical IVF laboratory and university department. PATIENT(S) Blood samples were donated by laboratory staff. INTERVENTION(S) Examination of the effects of mineral oil samples with various peroxide value (POV) on culture of erythroc...

Currently, the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver diseases (ALDs) is not clear. As a result, there is no effective treatment for ALDs. One limitation is the lack of a suitable animal model for use in studying ALDs. The tree shrew is a lower primate animal, characterized by a high-alcohol diet. This work aimed to establish a fatty liver model using tree shrews and to assess the animals' suitability...

Objective(s): Adipose tissue is one of the most important endocrine organs that liberates many metabolic mediators such as hormones, cytokines, and chemokines. Different types of fatty acids have key roles in adipogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two essential fatty acids, including Arachidonic acid (AA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), on ...

The aim of the present study was to improve methods for the isolation and identification of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). Human subcutaneous adipose tissue was collected during liposuction surgery, without ultrasound-assisted liposuction and other assisted techniques, and digested with 0.075% collagenase I. First (P1) and second (P2) passage ASCs were applied to the subsequent experiments....

Liver fibrosis is characterized by the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components, and activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are a primary source of ECM. Several studies have revealed that the induction of HSC senescence may reduce liver fibrosis. The effect of interleukin‑10 (IL‑10) on the senescence of activated HSCs is not fully understood. Therefore, the present study e...
