Comparison of Ultra Structure and Gene Expression of Cultured Limbal Stem Cells and Fresh Conjunctival, Limbal and Corneal Tissues
Purpose: The present study intends to show the characteristics of cultured limbal stem cell (CLSCs) and to compare them with normal Conjunctival (C), Limbal (L) and Cornea (K) tissues. Materials and Methods: The expressions of a set of genes potentially involved in differentiation and stemness function of limbal stem cells were assessed in freshly prepared limbal, corneal, and conjunctival tis...
متن کاملHealing Potential of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Cultured on a Collagen-Based Scaffold for Skin Regeneration
Background: Wound healing of burned skin remains a major goal in public health. Previous reports showed that the bone marrow stem cells were potent in keratinization and vascularization of full thickness skin wounds. Methods: In this study, mesenchymal stem cells were derived from rat adipose tissues and characterized by flowcytometry. Staining methods were used to evaluate their differentiatio...
متن کاملEx vivo expansion of limbal stem cells is affected by substrate properties.
Limbal epithelial stem cells play a key role in the maintenance and regulation of the corneal surface. Damage or destruction of these cells results in vascularisation and corneal opacity. Subsequent limbal stem cell transplantation requires an ex vivo expansion step and preserving cells in an undifferentiated state remains vital. In this report we seek to control the phenotype of limbal epithel...
متن کاملEx Vivo Expansion of Umbilical Cord Blood Hematopoietic Stem Cells on Collagen- Fibronectin Coated Electrospun Nano Scaffold
Background and Objective: Umbilical Cord blood (UCB) hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation is a therapeutic approach for the treatment of malignant and non-malignant hematologic disorders due to ease of collection, lack of risk for donors and lower levels of infection. Moreover, it is considered a good alternative for bone marrow HSC transplantation. The main limitation of their use is ...
متن کاملبررسی تأثیر جانشین پوستی تهیه شده از کشت هم‌زمان کراتینوسیت و فیبروبلاست روی داربست کلاژنی در ترمیم زخم پوست موش صحرایی
Abstract Background: Considering the ineffective conventional therapeutic methods for treating different types of wounds, and because of reports of successful use of skin substitutes prepared from co-cultured keratinocytes and fibroblasts on the scaffold of collagen, this study was performed to evaluate the skin substitute on experimentally induced wounds in rats. Materials and methods: Thi...
