background: recently, tissue engineering has developed approaches for repair and restoration of damaged skeletal system based on different scaffolds and cells. this study evaluated the ability of differentiated osteoblasts from adipose‑derived stem cells (adscs) seeded into hydroxyapatite/ tricalcium phosphate (ha‑tcp) to repair bone. methods: in this study, adscs of 6 canines were seeded in ha...

purpose : round-the-clock on-demand availability and corneal cloudiness are the two major problems with animal eyes for surgical practice. the purpose of this investigation is to assess the usability of long-term deep freezing for the preservation of enucleated sheep eyes and the adjunctive role of intracameral cryoprotective agent on corneal clarity. methods : thirty-two enucleated fresh sheep...

asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway with extensive airway remodeling. the ethical issues associated with the studies in asthmatic patients, required development of animal model of asthma. animal models of asthma can provide valuable information on several features of asthma pathogenesis and treatment. although these models cannot carry out all clinical features, they are valu...
