[ 1 ] - Remyelination improvement after neurotrophic factors secreting cells transplantation in rat spinal cord injury

Objective(s): Neurotrophic factors secreting cells (NTS-SCs) may be a superior cell source for cell-based therapy in neurodegenerative diseases. NTS-SCs are able to secrete some neurotrophic Such as nerve growth factor and glia-derived neurotrophic factor. Our primary aim was to assess transplantation of neurotrophic factor secreting cells derived from human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) ...

[ 2 ] - Estrogen treatment enhances neurogenic differentiation of human adipose derived stem cells in vitro

Objective(s):Estrogen is a sexual hormone that has prominent effects on reproductive and non-reproductive tissues. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of estrogen on the proliferation and neural differentiation of human adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) during neurogenic differentiation. Materials and Methods: Isolated human ADSCs were trans-differentiated in neural induction med...

[ 3 ] - Study of Human Chondrocyte Redifferntiation Capacity in Three-Dimensional Hydrogel Culture

Objective(s) Articular cartilage tissue defects cannot be repaired by the proliferation of resident chondrocytes. Autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) is a relatively new therapeutic approach to cover full thickness articular cartilage defects by in vitro grown chondrocytes from the joint of a patient. Therefore, we investigated the redifferentiation capability of human chondrocytes ma...

[ 4 ] - Induction of Chondrogenic Differentiation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells with TGF-β3 in Pellet Culture System

Objective Adult stem cells which are derived from different tissues, with their unique abilities to self-renew and differentiate into various phenotypes have the potential for cell therapy and tissue engineering. Human adipose tissue is an appropriate source of mesenchymal stem cells with wide differentiation potential for tissue engineering research. In this study isolated stem cells from hum...

[ 5 ] - Increase the continuity of learning the lessons of histology with discussion method

Introduction: According to the results of previous studies confirm the advantages of group discussion than lecture method and the importance of deep learning, it was decided as part of PhD students studying Histology and results presented to the group discussion on learning to survive with compared to usual Methods: This study Was Carried out in Department of Anatomical Sciences on Ph.D. Stude...
