recent findings in stem cell biology have opened a new window in regenerative medicine. the endometrium possesses mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) called endometrial stem cells (enscs) having specific regenerative properties linked to adult stem cells. they contribute in tissue remodeling and engineering and were shown to have immuno-modulating effects. many clinical trials were undertaken to asce...

the stem cells can be considered as the miracle of creation, because, they are a major reservoir of the bioactive factors, molecules and cells. these reservoir cells play a major role in development and growth of the tissues and organs. regardless of the differences in differentiation capacity of embryonic and adult stem cells, both the cells are rich sources of stem cells with therapeutic appl...

introduction: stromal cells having preadipocyte characteristics can be isolated from adipose tissue, propagated in vitro and induced to differentiate in vitro toward the osteogenic, adipogenic, myogenic and chondrogenic lineages when treated with established lineage-specific factors. in this research we isolated stromal cells from human adipose tissue and cultured and expanded and examined thei...

stem cells are self-renewing cells that can be differentiated into other cell types. conventional in vitro models for studying stem cells differentiation are usually preformed in two-dimensional (2d) cultures. the design of three-dimensional (3d) in vitro models which ideally are supposed to mimic the in vivo stem cells microenvironment is potentially useful for inducing stem cell derived tissu...

conclusions stem cell therapies in wound care may lessen the morbidities associated with wound healing. an ideal method for the effective administration of stem cells for burn patients has not yet been elucidated. further comparison of the local and systemic effects in burn patients, associated with each route of stem cell delivery, needs to be performed. results application of cells to the bur...

two basic and clinical researches accomplished during the recent years on embryonic and adult stem cells constituted a mutation in regenerative therapy. these cells can be used for treating some degenerative diseases. between them, age-related functional defects, hematopoietic and immune system disorders, heart failures, chronic liver injuries, diabetes, parkinson’s and alzheimer’s diseases, ar...

personalized medicine as a novel field of medicine refers to the prescription of specific therapeutics procedure for an individual. this approach has established based on pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic information and data. the terms precision and personalized medicines are sometimes applied interchangeably. however, there has been a shift from “personalized medicine” towards “precision me...

in recent years, the cloning technology has remarkably developed iran, but unfortunately, the required legal framework has not been created to support and protect such developments yet. this legal gap may lead to abuse of scientific researches to obtain illegal benefits and to undermine the intellectual property rights of scientists and researchers. thus to prevent such consequences, the attemp...

stem cells are self-renewing and undifferentiated cell types that can be differentiate into functional cells. stem cells can be classified into two main types based on their source of origin: embryonic and adult stem cells. stem cells also classified based on the range of differentiation potentials into totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent, and unipotent. multipotent stem cells have the ability...

the human placenta has long been the subject of scientific interest due to the important roles which it performs during pregnancy in sustaining the fetus and maintaining fetomaternal tolerance. more recently, however, researchers have begun to investigate the possibility that the placenta’s utility may extend beyond fetal development to act as a source of cells with clinically relevant properti...
