چکیده

High-resolution functional imaging of neural activity in vivo relies on appropriate labeling methods. In this issue of Neuron, Nagayama et al. introduce a simple procedure for staining subsets of neurons with organic calcium indicator dyes via local electroporation. Neuronal populations are sparsely labeled, preserving the ability to resolve calcium signals in dendrites and synaptic structures.

P 82: The Transplantation of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Neonatal Strokes

Brain injuries that caused by strokes (result of intra partum ischemia) are a frequent cause of prenatal mortality and morbidity with limited therapeutic options. Transplanting human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs) indicates improvement in hypoxic Ischemic brain injury (HIBD) by secretion growth factor stimulating repair processes (Hmscs) known as multi potent cells which isolated from bone marr...

Generation of motor neurons from human amygdala-derived neural stem-like cells

Objective(s): Among several cell sources, adult human neural stem/progenitor cells (hNS/PCs) have been considered outstanding cells for performing mechanistic studies in in vitro and in vivo models of neurological disorders as well as for potential utility in cell-based therapeutic approaches. Previous studies addressed the isolation and culture of hNS/PCs from human neocortical and hippocampal...

Comparison of three different staining methods for the morphometric characterization of Alpaca (Vicugna pacos) sperm, using ISAS® CASA-Morph system

Sperm morphometry is a part of the semen analysis based on CASA technology and has shown a big role in the prediction of male fertility. This analysis implies the use of stain techniques, although it has been shown that staining can make dramatic changes in the cell morphometry in different species. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the differences in sperm morphometry in Alpaca, intr...

بررسی تفاوت بین فاکتور خطرهای شایع سکته های مغزی ایسکمیک بر گردش خون قدامی و خلفی

Background and purpose: Ischemic brain stroke is one of the most common neurologic diseases and the second cause of death among adults. There is currently no information on the relationship between risk factors influencing anterior and posterior circulation. The most common ischemic strokes occur in the (anterior circulation) AC, while strokes occurring in the posterior circulation (PC) are...

O 26: Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury in Adult Rats with Injection of Human Epileptic Neural Stem Cells and Nano-Scaffold

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is described by a disruption in the normal function of the brain due to an injury following a trauma, which can potentially cause severe physical, cognitive, and emotional impairment. The use of human stem cells and self-assembling peptide scaffolds suggest huge potential for application in the treatment of TBI. In the present study, we surveyed the beneficial effec...
