Effective and efficient efferocytosis of dead cells associated cellular debris are critical to tissue homeostasis healing injured tissues. This important task was previously thought be restricted professional phagocytes (PPs). However, accumulating evidence has revealed another type phagocyte, the amateur phagocyte (AP), which can also participate in efferocytosis. APs non-myeloid progenitor/no...

background: the aim of this study was to investigate the percentage of the stem cells population in human endometrial tissue sections and cultured cells at fourth passage. methods: human endometrial specimens were divided into two parts, one part for morphological studies and the other part for in vitro culture. full thickness of human normal endometrial sections and cultured endometrial cells ...

INTRODUCTION: The hierarchy of stromal progenitors from the bone marrow is poorly characterized; multipotent mesenchymal cells and colony-forming units fibroblasts are isolated in culture. Mesenchymal stem do not have a unique combination surface antigens, making it difficult to obtain pure population. expression nestin gene often used as marker these cells.
 AIM: To evaluate level charact...

  Objective(s): Throughout evolution, mammalians have increasingly lost their ability to regenerate structures however rabbits are exceptional since they develop a blastema in their ear wound for regeneration purposes. Blastema consists of a group of undifferentiated cells capable of dividing and differentiating into the ear tissue. The objective of the present study is to isolate, culture expa...

Aim To study the effect of hypoxia on activity epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in epicardial cells, which provides formation a specialized microenvironment. Material and methods This used model experimental myocardial infarction created by ligation anterior descendent coronary artery. The cells after hypoxic exposure was studied with marker, pimonidazole, bromodeoxyuridine, immunofluore...

fluoxetine is a common antidepressant which selectively inhibits serotonin reuptake at synaptic level. some research findings have proposed the effect this drug on neurogenesis, neuronal survival as well as proliferation of the neural progenitor cells. endometrium is a part of uterus which harbors mesenchymal stem cells. this source of stem cells can be differentiated into neural cells which ma...

UNLABELLED Mesenchymal-epithelial transition events are related to embryonic development, tissue construction, and wound healing. Stem cells are involved in all of these processes, at least in part. However, the direct evidence of mesenchymal-epithelial transition associated with stem cells is unclear. To determine whether mesenchymal-epithelial transition occurs in liver development and/or the...
