introduction: mesenchymal stem cells can be isolated from adult tissues, such as the adipose tissue, or other sources. among all these sources, adipose tissue because of easy access, and placenta due to its immunomodulatory properties, in addition to another useful properties, were attracted more attention to themselves. isolation and comparing these two different sources can help us for access...

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...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a disruption in the brain functions following a head trauma. Cell therapy may provide a promising treatment for TBI. Human neural stem cells cultured in self-assembling peptide scaffolds have been proposed as a potential novel method for cell replacement treatment after TBI. In the present study, we accessed the effects of human neural stem/progenitor cells (hNS/...

introduction: dental pulp-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have emerged as a promising tool for use in regenerative medicine. the in vitro growth kinetic and culture requirement of the cells derived from human dental pulp, which is the subject of this present study, is poorly described. materials and methods: stem cells were derived from human third molar and then characterized. the in vit...

Introduction:   Mesenchymal stem cells have the potential of self-renewal and differentiation into different cell types, including blood cells, heart, nerves and cartilage, and have unlimited power for division. These cells can be obtained from cord, before implantation from fertilized cells and also from various tissues of adults although the differentiation power and the ability to reproduce ...

PURPOSE Recently intracavernous injection of stem cells has garnered great interest as a potential treatment of erectile dysfunction. However, most stem cells are washed out immediately after intracavernous injection. The goal of this study was to investigate using NanoShuttle™ magnetic nanoparticles to maintain stem cells in the corpus cavernosum after intracavernous injection, thereby improvi...

Background and Aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a preferred cell source for the generation of hepatocyte-like cells in regenerative medicine. They can be isolated from different sources, including adipose tissues. The Raman spectroscopy approach was evaluated for quick and efficient identification of MSCs differentiation status and a broader perspective on cell differentiation. Material...
