Selecting the optimal cell for kidney regeneration

Development of an optimal model of criteria for selecting the presidents of the universities in Iran

Objective: The selection of the presidents of the universities, considering the role of the university in today's knowledge-based world, becomes more complex every year. It is therefore expected that a careful and informed process be used when appointing or selecting such a manager. Considering the importance of selecting university presidents based on appropriate criteria, the present study wa...

Selecting the Optimal Test Strategy

T oday’s printed circuit board (PCB) assembly test engineers face significantly more test challenges than just a few years ago. Board complexity is dramatically increasing with more components, more joints, higher densities and new package technologies. The higher component and joint counts create more defect opportunities, which lead to lower yields for a given defect level. Fortunately, test ...

The renal stem cell system in kidney repair and regeneration.

The adult mammalian renal tubular epithelium exists in a relatively quiescent to slowly replicating state, but has great potential for regenerative morphogenesis following severe ischemic or toxic injury. Kidney regeneration and repair occur through three cellular and molecular mechanisms: differentiation of the somatic stem cells, recruitment of circulating stem cells and, more importantly, pr...

Regeneration of the Kidney - Viewed from ES Cell

Kidney regeneration.

Neonephrogenesis, the capacity to regenerate renal tissue, is a distinctive feature of fish but not usually of mammals. However, evidence exists for kidney repair in response to insulting agents for animals and human beings. Studies have therefore been designed in the past few years to clarify the cellular and molecular basis of renal repair, with the aim to investigate the potential regenerati...
