Human Cryopreservation Research at Advanced Neural Biosciences
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In 2008 we obtained modest funding to establish a laboratory aimed at researching cryonics. Our first challenge was to establish a research program that (a) would distinguish itself from other research labs engaged in cryobiology research, and (b) would be feasible in terms of limited financial resources and time. We immediately recognized that our greatest contribution would be to investigate cryonics protocols under realistic conditions. In this article we introduce the reader to some of our most important and robust discoveries.

Safe and efficient method for cryopreservation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural stem and progenitor cells by a programmed freezer with a magnetic field
Stem cells represent a potential cellular resource in the development of regenerative medicine approaches to the treatment of pathologies in which specific cells are degenerated or damaged by genetic abnormality, disease, or injury. Securing sufficient supplies of cells suited to the demands of cell transplantation, however, remains challenging, and the establishment of safe and efficient cell ...

Objective(s):Althoughroutinely applied in assisted reproductive technology, human sperm cryopreservation is not a completely successful procedure. Adverse effects of cryopreservation on the fertilization capacity, motility, morphology, and viability of spermatozoa have been proven; cryopreservation has also shown a role in sperm DNA fragmentation and infertility. The post-thaw survival of sperm...

Cryopreservation is the method of choice for long term storage of human PBMCs. This study was designed to compare the different combinations of variables affecting the cryopreservation of PBMCs samples. The viability of PBMCs separated from 2×5 ml peripheral blood samples obtained from 16 healthy adult volunteers, were measured using trypan blue dye exclusion method just before freezing with ...

While the idea of freezing human male gametes has been experimented since the late 1700's, it was not until 50 years ago that human sperm were frozen, and later thawed in such a way that they could fertilize an egg and initiate development. In the past several decades the technology of cryopreservation, or maintaining life in a frozen state, has advanced considerably. With the use of modern tec...
