Stem cells: potency, plasticity and public perception.
Production of chimaeras with embryonal carcinoma and embryonic stem cells enabled a very thorough investigation of the potency of these cells in the mouse. Human embryonal carcinoma and embryonic stem cell differ from their murine counterparts in a number of respects and, for obvious reasons, their potency is more difficult to assess. Recently, findings attesting to a surprising degree of plast...
متن کاملGrowth Kinetics, Characterization, and Plasticity of Human Menstrual Blood Stem Cells
One of the readily available sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is menstrual blood-derived stem cells (Men-SCs), which exhibit characteristics similar to other types of MSCs. This study was performed to determine the growth kinetics, plasticity, and characterization of Men-SCs in women. During spring 2014 in the southern Iranian city of Shiraz, menstrual blood (5 mL) was obtained from 10 ...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potency of Cord Blood Stem Cells in Patients with Cerebral Palsy: A Systemic Literature Review
Background: The main objective of this study was to systematically review the reported potency of cord blood stem cells in treating patients with neurological disorders such as cerebral palsy. Methods: PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane were searched thoroughly on September 2016 using the following search terms: “Umbilical cord blood stem cells” AND “development” AND “cerebral palsy” to find articl...
متن کاملPlasticity of spermatogonial stem cells
There have been significant breakthroughs over the past decade in the development and use of pluripotent stem cells as a potential source of cells for applications in regenerative medicine. It is likely that this methodology will begin to play an important role in human clinical medicine in the years to come. This review describes the plasticity of one type of pluripotent cell, spermatogonial s...
متن کاملPlasticity of Adult Stem Cells
Recent years have seen much excitement over the possibility that adult mammalian stem cells may be capable of differentiating across tissue lineage boundaries, and as such may represent novel, accessible, and very versatile effectors of therapeutic tissue regeneration. Yet studies proposing such "plasticity" of adult somatic stem cells remain controversial, and in general, existing evidence sug...
