background: development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has led to designing scaffolds and their modification to provide a better microenvironment which mimics the natural niche of the cells. gelatin surface modification was applied to improve scaffold flexibility and cytocompatibility. methods: plla/pcl aligned fibrous scaffold was fabricated using electrospinning method. adscs...

bone tissue engineering has been one of the most promising areas of research, providing a potential clinical application to cure bone defects. recently, various stem cells, including embryonic stem cells (escs), bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (bm-mscs), umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ucb-mscs), adipose tissue-derived stem cells (adscs), muscle-derived stem cell...

Adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) are multipotent mesenchymal stem cells found within adipose tissue (1) . They form unique colonies within the adipose niche and are characterised by expressing specific cells surface proteins (2) . Historically, they were exposed to a cocktail of glial growth factors to obtain neural phenotypes (3) . Our aim was to determine if electrical stimulation alone cou...

Abstract Background Wound healing is impaired in patients with diabetes due to the multifactorial etiology of disease, which limits therapeutic efficacy various approaches. This study hypothesizes that combination adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) might achieve optimally efficient diabetic wound healing. Methods ADSCs were isolated from adipose tissues Sprague-Da...

cell replacement therapy has provided the basis for future clinical applications to treat central nervous system injuries fallowing by car accidents. induced functional neurons are an option for replacing the lost neurons. the ability to monitor changes in membrane potential is a useful tool for studying neuronal function, but there are only limited options available at present. here, investiga...

The environmental obesogen hypothesis proposes that pre- and postnatal exposure to environmental chemicals contributes to adipogenesis and the development of obesity. Tributyltin (TBT) is an agonist of both retinoid X receptor (RXR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma). Activation of these receptors can elevate adipose mass in adult mice exposed to the chemical in ut...

AIM To identify and characterize functionally distinct subpopulation of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). METHODS ADSCs cultured from mouse subcutaneous adipose tissue were sorted fluorescence-activated cell sorter based on aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity, a widely used stem cell marker. Differentiation potentials were analyzed by utilizing immunocytofluorescece and its quantitative ...

Transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) to treat neurodegenerative disease shows promise; however, the clinical application of NSCs is limited by the invasive procurement and ethical concerns. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are a source of multipotent stem cells that can self-renew and differentiate into various kinds of cells; this study intends to generate neurospheres from human ADSC...

objective(s): platelet-rich plasma (prp) has recently emerged as a promising strategy in regenerative medicine due to its multiple endogenous growth factors. little is known about the role of prp as a promoter in chondrogenesis of human adipose derived stem cells (hadscs). the aim of this study was to determine whether prp may be considered as a natural and easy achievable source of growth fact...
