background and aims: infectious laryngotracheitis virus (iltv) infection causes a highly contagious respiratory disease in poultry leads to significant economic losses in the poultry industry. the genomic and antigenic characteristics between virulent and vaccine strains of iltv are very similar. the ability of embryonated chicken neural stem (cns) cell for differential diagnosis of iltv strain...

objective(s):to culture thein vitro mouse embryonic stem cells (mescs) and to direct their  differentiation to germ-line cells; in present study we used a vector backbone containing the fusion construct stra8-egfp to select differentiated es cells that entered meiosis.  retinoic acid was used to differentiate embryonic stem cells to germ cells. materials and methods: a fragment of stra8 gene pr...

Objective: The depletion of platelets in patients under different clinical conditions like thrombocytopenia is often associated with a significant mortality factor. Alternative modes platelet propagation from other resources, including stem cells, are evaluated vitro conditions. Embryonic (ES) cells can proliferate and differentiate into various cell types. This study the generation functional ...

Human umbilical cord blood (hUCB) has been proposed to contain not only haematopoietic stem cells, but also a rare pluripotent embryonic-like stem cell (ELSc) population that is negative for hematopoietic markers (Lin(-)CD45(-)) and expresses markers typical of pluripotent cells. The aim of this work was to isolate, characterise and expand this ELSc fraction from hUCB, as it may provide a valua...

introduction: lactate dehydrogenase is one of the cardiac enzyme markers, studied in vivo. in the present study, activity and kinetic properties of enzyme extracted from cardiomycytes derived from mouse embyronic stem cell in vitro were compared with enzyme extracted mouse neonatal from cardiomyocytes in vivo. material and methods: mouse embryonic stem cells were cultured and differentiated and...

spermatogonial stem cell (ssc) technologies provide multiple opportunities for research in the field of biotechnology and regenerative medicine. the therapeutic use of embryonic stem cells (escs) is restricted due to severe ethical and immunological concerns. therefore, we need a new pluripotent cell type. despite well-known role of germ cells in the gametogenesis, some facts apparently show th...

Colorectal cancer is the third most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide. Prevention of colorectal cancer initiation represents the most effective overall strategy to reduce its associated morbidity and mortality. Activating KRAS mutation (KRASmut) is the most prevalent oncogenic driver in colorectal cancer development, and KRASmut inhibition represents an unmet clinical need. We apply a syste...

spinal cord injury (sci) is a destructive event that often lead to permanent neurologic deficit. current clinical treatments are aimed at preventing secondary damage, promoting regeneration, and replacing destroyed spinal cord tissue, although effective treatments for sci remain limited. cell therapies for treating sci are promising therapy for replacing dead cells, neuroprotection and axon reg...

The major goal of the Chromosome-Centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP) is to systematically map the entire human proteome with the intent to enhance our understanding of human biology at the cellular level. However, this goal may be hindered by the lack of quality observations of given proteins due to absence of expression in a given tissue, very low abundance, and expression only in rare samp...

introduction: to evaluate the camp -mediated ibmx (3-isobutyle -1-methyl xanthin) and db-camp (dibutyryl camp) effects on differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hescs) into nerve cells were the objectives of this study. methods: we have used royan h1 hesc- derived embryoid bodies with four treatment groups: six days treatment with ibmx (5×10 -4m) and db-camp (10 -9m) (referred to as cam...
