Introduction: Adult stem cells are the group of cells which conserve their nature in tissues and organs among other cells. In recent years, the researchers reported the existence of stem cells on the Bulge of hair follicles near to the smooth muscle. It is possible to differentiate these stem cells to neural cells by induction of Shh, FGF, and RA factors. Because of existence of these factors ...

background: successful embryo transfer (et) technique is a fateful step of all efforts to achieve live births from in vitro produced embryos in assisted reproductive techniques or in knockout, transgenic or cloned animal projects. small reproductive tract of mice and limitation of current techniques may not well satisfy the requirements for mass production of genetically modified mice. genetic ...

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of growth regulators on callus induction in rice embryo culture. In this experiment, caullogenesis was initiated from the matured seeds of seven indica rice varieties viz., TRY 1, TRY 2, Pokkali, CSR 10, W.Ponni, BPT 5204 and IR 29. The medium used for this callus induction was Murashige and Skoog (1962) commonly referred as MS medium with six dif...

Background: Normal growth of oocytes, embryos and also successful implantation depend on environmental factors such as the secretion of cumulus cells and composition of follicular and tubular fluids. Therefore, addition of serum, conditioned medium (CM) to the culture medium and also co-culture with somatic cells improve mammalian embryo development. So, in the respect to the secretion of diffe...

We have cloned a SOMATIC EMBRYOGENESIS RECEPTOR KINASE (SERK) gene from Medicago truncatula (MtSERK1) and examined its expression in culture using real time PCR. In the presence of the auxin 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) alone, root differentiation occurs from the proliferating calli in both the cultured highly embryogenic seed line (2HA) and a low to nonembryogenic seed line (M. truncatula cv...

Embryo rescue refers to an in vitro technology have been used for propagating plants under from poorly developed embryos by avoiding embryo abortion. The aim of the present study was regeneration a medicinally wild tree species Buchanania lanzan through method. Isolated immature dissected out de-coded seeds collected 15 years old trees were cultured Woody Plant Medium (WPM) test germination. 10...

ent conccntrations ef 2,4-D, NAA and BAP, large number of somatic cmbryos differentiated When the suspension was cultured for 7 days in the induction medium. The cel]s destined to become somatic embryos divided to form spherical of filamentous proembryos. The fi]amenteus proembryo developed into different shapes of embryos. Somatic embryogenesis began in tlie proembryo stage and preceeded from ...

1. A method is described for the primary growth of chick embryo liver cells on cover slips in culture, and the factors of the culture medium are considered that affect the induction of porphyrin formation with certain chemicals. 2. A method is described for following &aminolevulinic acid synthetase (ALA synthetase) activity by the determination of porphyrin fluorescence developed in the cells o...

The focus of the current project was to establish somatic embryogenesis protocols for the tropical pine species Pinus oocarpa using immature zygotic embryos (ZEs) as explants. Somatic embryogenesis is best supported by mimicking natural seed-embryo developmental conditions, through a tissue culture medium formulation based on the mineral content of the seed nutritive tissue [megagametophyte (MG...

Implantation support medium transfer (ISME-T) is referred as cultivation and transfer of embryos using advanced enriched medium that all nutrients and energy sources needed for an optimal embryo development. They may serve as cultivation as well as transferring medium. Enriched cultivation medium reduces the embryo stress through in vitro fertilization (IVF) process by providing a more physiolo...
