Adipose-derived stromal/stem cells improve epidermal homeostasis

Human Adipose-Derived Stem/Stromal Cells from Children or Adults?

Discovering a cell type with the highest efficiency and the least side-effects is one of the priorities of scientists active in this field. Of all the cells, mesenchymal stem cells have been and still are of interest to the researchers for use in pre-clinical and clinical studies due to being easily accessible, pluripotency, secretion of numerous growth factors, low risk of immunological reject...

Adipose-derived stem cells.

Human adipose tissue has been shown to contain a population of cells that possesses extensive proliferative capacity and the ability to differentiate into multiple cell lineages. These cells are referred to as adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and are generally similar, though not identical, to mesenchymal stem cells (also referred to as marrow stromal cells). ADSCs for research are mos...

Physical and Chemical Factors that Improve Epidermal Permeability Barrier Homeostasis

For terrestrial creatures, the water-impermeable barrier function of the skin is essential to maintain life in the face of environmental dryness. Stratum corneum, which plays a crucial role in the barrier function, is composed of two components, i.e., protein-rich nonviable cells and intercellular lipid domains. When the barrier function is damaged by a surfactant, organic solvent or tape strip...

characterization of a three-dimensional organotypic co-culture skin model for epidermal differentiation of rat adipose-derived stem cells

objective: the organotypic co-culture is a well-known technique to examine cellular interactions and their roles in stem cell proliferation and differentiation. this study aims to evaluate the effects of dermal fibroblasts (dfs) on epidermal differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells (ascs) using a three-dimensional (3d) organotypic coculture technique. materials and methods: in this experim...
