The Growth of Cartilage Cells in Soft Agar and Liquid Suspension

چکیده
A considerable body of literature indicates that on monolayer culture, embryonic chick cartilage cells are obtained which morphologically and biochemically behave as chondrocytes (1). Earlier studies suggested that repeated monolayer culture results in "dedifferentiation" of chondro-434 B R I E F N 0 T E S cytes to give fibroblast-like cells. Coon (2) has demonstrated that with appropriate media, in low density cultures, it is possible to obtain stable clones of polygonal cells which form meta-chromatic matrix. More recently, Bryan (3) has shown that the development of fibroblast-like

Cell Suspension Culture of Plumbago europaea L. Towards Production of Plumbagin
Background: Plumbagin is as an important bioactive secondary metabolite found in the roots of Plumbago spp. The only one species, Plumbago europaea L., grows wild in Iran. The therapeutic use of plumbagin is limited due to its insufficient supply from the natural sources as the plants grow slowly and take several years to produce quality roots. O...
متن کاملAdvances in adipose-derived stem cells and cartilage regeneration: review article
The cartilage is a connective tissue that, due to the strength of its extracellular matrix, allows the tissue to tolerate mechanical stress without undergoing permanent deformation. It is responsible for the support of soft tissues and due to its smooth surface and elasticity, gives the joints the ability to slip and bend. excessive weight, excessive activity, or trauma can all cause cartilage ...
متن کاملANTISENSE RNA TO THE TYPE I INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR REVERSED THE TRANSFORMED PHENOTYPE OF PC-3 HUMAN PROSTATE CANCER CELL LINE IN VITRO
The insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) plays an essential role in the establishment and maintenance of transformed phenotype. Interference with the IGF-IR pathway by antisense causes reversal of the transformed phenotype in many rodent and human tumor cell lines. We stably transfected the PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line with an IGF-IR antisense RNA expression plasmid. The ...
متن کاملDesigning of Human Cartilage Tissue, by Differentiation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells With BMP-6 in Alginate Scaffold
Purpose: In the present study the effect of BMP-6 was investigated on chondrogenesis of adiposederived stem cells. Materials and Methods: Mesenchymal stem cells derived from subcutaneous adipose tissue were cultured on alginate scaffold to induce chondrogenesis in experimental group, with chondrogenic medium having BMP-6 growth factor for 3 weeks. In control group medium without BMP-6 was appli...
متن کاملInitiate Tumors with Single Cell Spheres Formed in Serum-Containing Medium
Background : It is difficult to prospectively identify and maintain putative tumor-initiating cells (TICs). Spheres that formed in serum-free media contained more TICs while spheres formed in serum-containing media were not used in tumor-initiating. Methods : Soft-agar was used to isolate colonies. A continuous, static suspension culture using serum-containing media was modified from liquid ove...
