Metamorphosis of mesothelial cells with active horizontal motility in tissue culture

Metamorphosis of mesothelial cells with active horizontal motility in tissue culture

Mesothelial cells, which have diverse roles in physiology and pathology, constitute the mesothelium along with connective tissue and the basement membrane; the mesothelium serves to shield the somatic cavities. After mesothelial injury, mesothelial cells undergo tissue recovery. However, the mechanism of mesothelial regeneration remains poorly understood. In this study, we used confocal time-la...

Isolation of Adipose Tissue Stem Cells with Organ Culture Method

Background  Isolation of adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with current enzymatic methods has some limitations. For example, it is costly and time-consuming and results in a heterogeneous cell population that making compromise proliferation and differentiation of MSCs. Also, it is accompanied with the increased risk of culture contaminations because of several handling steps.In this...

Mesothelial cells in tissue repair and fibrosis

Mesothelial cells are fundamental to the maintenance of serosal integrity and homeostasis and play a critical role in normal serosal repair following injury. However, when normal repair mechanisms breakdown, mesothelial cells take on a profibrotic role, secreting inflammatory, and profibrotic mediators, differentiating and migrating into the injured tissues where they contribute to fibrogenesis...

P-63: The Effect of Temperatures on Goat Epididymal Sperm Motility in Tissue Culture Media 199

Background: There is a general deterioration in sperm quality depending on time postmortem. Refrigeration of the epididymes down to around 5°C is the best strategy to lower this damage and there are many dissim ilarities between species, possibly due to differences on cold shock endurance of epididymal sperm. Our objective was to determine the effect of 5°C and 37°C on goat epididymal sperms mo...
