چکیده
Efforts are being made to develop neuroprotective agents for recovery and prevention of further deterioration of brain tissues in patient with stroke.Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (GCSF) is a glycoprotein hormone encoded by a single gene located on chromosome 17q 11-22. It functions in the regulation of granulopoiesis& terminal maturation of neutrophills. It is being used for the treatment of neutropenia for the production of CD34+ haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) for bone marrow transplant patients. Neuroprotective effect of GCSF is being studied in various experimental studies but its mechanism of action is not well understood and appears to be multimodal.

Objective(s): Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is used in clinical practice for the treatment of neutropenia and to stimulate generation of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow donors. In the present study, the ability of G-CSF in mobilizing exogenous bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) from peripheral blood into the brain was tested. We for the first time injected a small amount of ...

Background: Recent clinical studies of treating traumatic brain injury (TBI) with autologous adult stem cells led us to compare effect of intravenous injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) and bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell mobilization, induced by granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), in rats with a cortical compact device. Methods: Forty adult male Wistar rats w...

Background: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs), as a type of mesenchymal stem cells, and the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), as a type of growth factor, may recover damaged ovaries. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of the coadministration of BMSCs and the G-CSF on damaged ovaries after creating a chemotherapy model with cyclophosphamide (CTX) in rats.Met...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is described as a situation in which the brain is damaged by an external force. It is considered to be a chief problem in health care. Pharmacotherapy and stem cell therapy are the main treatments used in TBI. The purpose of these procedures is to control the inflammation in injured regions of brain. Currently, there is no effective care for TBI that could regenerat...
