ALGIPORE® STIMULATES OSTEBLAST DIFFERENTIATION IN ADIPOSE DERIVED STEM CELLS Brunelli G, Carinci F, Girardi A, Palmieri A, Caccianiga AGL, Gigante A, Sollazzo V. Advances in bone grafting are progressing with the evolution of biomaterials that permit the in corporation of osteoinductive and osteogenic proteins into osteoconductive composite scaffolds. Algipore®, a hydroxyapatite ceramic obtaine...

objective(s):osteoarthritis (oa) is globally one of the most common diseases from the middle age onwards. cartilage is an avascular tissue therefore it cannot be repaired in the body. conservative treatments have failed as a good remedy and cell therapy as a decisive cure is needed. one of the best and easily accessible cell sources for this purpose is adipose-derived stem cells which can be di...

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells able to differentiating into a variety of mesenchymal tissues including osteoblasts, adipocytes and several other tissues. Objectives: Differentiation of MSCs into fibroblast cells in vitro is an attractive strategy to achieve fibroblast cell and use them for purposes such as regeneration medicine. The goal of this s...

Background:As the use of mobile phones is increasing, public concern about the harmful effects of radiation emitted by these devices is also growing. In addition, protection questions and biological effects are among growing concerns which have remained largely unanswered. Stem cells are useful models to assess the effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) on other cell lines. S...

conclusions based on our findings, we conclude that the separation and reproduction of adipose tissue cells is an appropriate method for purification of mscs in animal studies. regarding the histomorphometric and flow cytometry analysis results, we demonstrated the differentiation ability of mscs in normal medium and hope to employ these cells for the regeneration of damaged bone tissues in the...

Objective: In this study, the bone regeneration ability of polyacrylamide hydrogel and nanohydroxyapatite scaffolds (PAAH/NHA) and stem cells derived from adipose tissue (ADSCs) in the healing of critical sized bone defects in rabbit radius were assessed. Animals and procedures: 12 New Zealand white male rabbits were divided into 3 groups. The rabbits were anesthetized and 15 mm bone def...

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Previous studies suggested that mesenchymal stem cells may ameliorate fibrogenesis through the inhibition of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation. This study aimed to investigate whether adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) could modulate the activation of HSCs and contribute to the recovery of liver fibrogenesis. METHODS ADSCs and HSCs were isolated from Spra...

Conventional therapy of primary bone tumors includes surgical excision with wide resection, which leads to physical and aesthetic defects. For reconstruction of bone and joints, allografts can be supplemented with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Similarly, adipose tissue transfer (ATT) is supplemented with adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) to improve the efficient grafting in the correction of ...

The aim of this review was to describe the current state-of-the-art regarding isolation, characterization and aging of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have recently received widespread attention because of their potential use in tissue-engineering applications. Various studies have indicated that MSCs with a fibroblast-like morphology migrate...

The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between rat intestine decellularized scaffold and human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. Rat large intestine was dissected in fragments and decellularized by physicochemical methods. The scaffolds were loaded by human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells expressing green fluorescent protein. Microscopic sections were prepared fr...
