The History of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine in Perspective
نویسنده
چکیده
history as a mirror of the cultural history of mankind. Even the early history of men is related to the idea that independent life can be created without sexual reproduction. Stories from Greek mythology [the creation of persons without sexual reproduction, e.g., the generation of Prometheus (Fig. 1.1)] may be considered as early reports representing the idea of creating living creatures from living or nonliving specimens. The Biblical tale of Eve created from Adam’s rib is a further and perhaps the most well-known 1.1 History

Spermatogonia stem cells: A new pluripotent source for repairment in regenerative medicine
Recently new reports have proved the pluripotency of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) derived from male gonad. This pluripotent stem cells resembled Embryonic stem cells recognized as Embryonic Stem like cells (ES like cells). ES like cells forms sharp edge colonies that are immunopositive to pluripotency markers and have differentiation capacity to Ectodermal, Mesodermal and Endodermal layers....
متن کاملExtract of mouse embryonic stem cells induces the expression of pluripotency genes in human adipose tissue-derived stem cells
Objective(s): In some previous studies, the extract of embryonic carcinoma cells (ECCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have been used to reprogram somatic cells to more dedifferentiated state. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mouse ESCs extract on the expression of some pluripotency markers in human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Materials and Methods: Human A...

متن کاملThe Effect of Lyophilization on Light Transmission of Amniotic Membrane: A Comparison with Rabbit Cornea
Background & Aims: Amniotic membrane persists for a long time after ocular transplantation (as corneal substitute) and can affect light transmission (transparency). The aim of this study was to evaluate the transparency of amniotic membrane after freeze-drying (lyophilization) and to compare the results with transparency of rabbit cornea. Methods: Transparency of rabbits’ corneas and fresh and ...
