P-126: Stem Cell Factor Increases Blastocyst Formation in Mouse Two-Cell Embryo Culture

P-92: Retinoic Acid and STO Co-Culture System Enhance Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell

P-30: Developmental Capacity and Blastocyst Formation of Thawed Tetrahedral Versus Non-Tetrahedral 4-cell Stage Mouse Embryos After Vitrification

Background: It was reported in a literature that approximately one third of the 4-cell stage embryos did not exhibit a tetrahedral shape. Non-tetrahedral embryos showed a lower in vitro developmental potential than tetrahedral embryos. Recently vitrification technology has been widely employed for embryo cryopreservation. The objective of this study was to prove our hypothesis that vitrified - ...

Follicle stimulating hormone increases spermatogonial stem cell colonization during in vitro co-culture

The complex process of spermatogenesis is regulated by various factors. Studies on spermatogonial stem cells (SCCs) have provided very important tool to improve herd genetic and different field. 0.2 to 0.3 percent of total cells of seminiferous tubules is consist of spermatogonial stem cells. To investigate and biomanipulation of these cells, proliferation and viability rate of cells should be ...

P-115: Melatonin Increases Developmental Rate of In Vitro Mouse Somatic Cell Nuclear

Background: The beneficial effect of supplementing culture medium with melatonin has been reported during in vitro embryo development of species such as mouse, bovine and porcine. However, the effect of melatonin on the mouse somatic cell nuclear transfer remained unknown. Materials and Methods: In this study, we assessed the effects of various concentrations of melatonin (10-6 to 10-12 M) on t...

Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell into Insulin-Secreting Cell

Purpose: Differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into Insulin secreting endocrine cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, Royan B1 mouse embryonic stem cell (derived from C57BL/6 mouse) were used. In directed differentiation method, embryonicstem cells after embryoid bodies formation were differentiated into insulin secreting cells. Nestin positive cells were obtained after culture ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Purification from the Articular Cartilage Cell Culture

Objective Articular cartilage as an avascular skeletal tissue possesses limited capacity to heal. On the other hand, it is believed that the regeneration capacity of each tissue is largely related to its stem cell contents. Little is known about the presence of mesenchymal stem cells in articular cartilage tissue. This subject is investigated in the present study. Materials and Methods Artic...
