Enzyme-histochemical and cytochemical studies on reticuloendothelial cells of human bone marrow.

Expression of cytochrome P450 and glutathione S-transferase in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

Currently several studies are being carried out on various properties of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)however there are a few investigations about drug metabolizing properties of these cells. The aim of thisstudy was to measure the key factors involved in drug metabolism in human bone marrow MSCs. For thispurpose, cellular glutathione (GSH), glutathione Stransferase (GSTs) and...

Laminin matrix promotes hepatogenic terminal differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

Objective(s):The application of stem cells holds great promises in cell transplants. Considering the lack of optimal in vitro model for hepatogenic differentiation, this study was designed to examine the effects of laminin matrix on the improvement of in vitro differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSC) into the more functional hepatocyte-like cells. Materials and Met...

Histochemical demonstration of diaphorases and dehydrogenases in normal human leukocytes and platelets.

T HE PROBLEMS involved in the cytochemical demonstration of the activity of oxidative enzyme systems in the cells of bone marrow and peripheral blood relate mainly to methods of fixation and to the ultimate identification of the cells in which the enzyme reaction takes place. Approaches have been suggested for the demonstration of the activity of specific dehydrogenase systems in blood cells, s...
