Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a terminal neurodegenerative disease with only few minimally effective treatment options. This study treats patient Spinal ALS Bone Marrow Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Extracellular Vesicles (BM-MSCEVs) to slow or stop the progress of disease. After 2 months and 4 treatments, demonstrated improvement in functional scores most physical exam findings. BM-MS...

Stem cell-based cellular therapy is a promising tool for the treatment of pathological conditions with underlying severe tissue damage or malfunction like in chronic cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, inflammatory conditions. One biggest technical challenges use natural stem cells, however, prevention their premature senescence during therapeutical manipulations. Culturing cells under hypoxic bel...

introduction: stromal cells having preadipocyte characteristics can be isolated from adipose tissue, propagated in vitro and induced to differentiate in vitro toward the osteogenic, adipogenic, myogenic and chondrogenic lineages when treated with established lineage-specific factors. in this research we isolated stromal cells from human adipose tissue and cultured and expanded and examined thei...

Objective- To investigate and compare growth potential as well as aging of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from rat bone marrow tissue and adipose tissue (AT) occurred at epicardial and epididymal regions. Design- Experimental study.   Animals- 10 Wistar Rats.   Procedures- Rat MSCs occurred at bone marrow and epicardial and epididymal AT were isolated and culture expanded through sev...

PURPOSE The aim of this study is to compare the gene expression profile in mesenchymal stem cells derived from dental tissues and bone marrow for characterization of dental stem cells. METHODS We employed GeneChip analysis to the expression levels of approximately 32,321 kinds of transcripts in 5 samples of bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) (n=1), periodontal ligament stem ce...

background: the aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of adipose derived stem cells on bone repair in through and through mandibular bone defects of canine. materials and methods: in this prospective comparative study, adipose-derived stem cells were isolated from subcutaneous fat of lateral thoracic area of 4 dogs. the isolated cells were cultured and expanded through 3 passages. the...

spinal cord injury (sci) is a debilitating disease which leads to progressive functional damages. because of limited axonal regeneration in the central nervous system, there is no or little recovery expected in the patients. different cellular and molecular approaches were investigated in sci animal models. cellular transplantation of stem cells can potentially replace damaged tissue and provid...

this investigation aimed to examine the protective function of vitamin e on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) treated with cadmium chloride. rat bone marrow mscs were extracted using flashing-out and cultured in dmem containing 10% fbs and 100 u/ml pen/strep. at the end of the third passage, cells were divided into 4 groups including control, cadmium chloride, cadmium chloride + vit...

background: in recent years we have successfully adopted an in vitro hepatogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (mscs). in this protocol the biologically active hepatocyte-like cells were differentiated from the stem cells isolated from either bone marrow or umbilical cord blood (ucb) samples. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficiency of the hepatogenic differentiati...

human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs), which also called mesenchymal stromal cells, are multipotent stem cell. human mscs typically are positive for the surface markers cd44, cd73, cd90, cd105, cd106, and also negative for hematopoietic markers cd34 and cd45.these cells can be isolated from postnatal bone marrow, adipose tissue, placenta, and scalp tissue, as well as from various fetal tissues. ...
