Objectives: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are considered to have potential clinical application value in the treatment of acute lung injury (ALI). Myeloid-derived growth factor (MYDGF) can promote proliferation cell. We hypothesized that MYDGF may play a role reducing vitro and vivo through bone marrow cells. Methods: An model lipopolysaccharide (LPS)(MLE-12) was establishe...

Abstract Objective We aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of Moringa oleifera leaf extracts on osteogenic induction rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) following peroxidative damage and explore underlying mechanisms. Methods Conditioned medium was used induce differentiation BMSCs, which were treated with H 2 O , extracts-containing serum, or phosphatidyl inositol-3 kinase (...

BACKGROUND Differences in causes, severities, areas of stenosis, and the association with swallowing and phonation of larynx and trachea can result into Laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS).This study evaluated the healing effect of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) in experimentally induced LTS dog model. METHODS Seven dogs were enrolled. BMSCs were isolated from proximal humerus and shoulder of a do...

In the present paper we develop a new non-cell based (cell-free) therapeutic approach applied to BV2 microglial cells and spinal cord derived primary microglia (PM) using conditioned media from rat bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs-CM). First we collected conditioned media (CM) from either naive or injured rat spinal cord tissue (SCI-CM, inflammatory stimulation agent) and from rat bone marrow s...

Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) are capable of differentiating into multiple cell lineages including endothelial cells. Simvastatin, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that is used as a cholesterol-lowering agent, promotes endothelial differentiation from epithelial progenitor cells (EPC). The Notch signaling pathway, which plays a key role in multiple cell functions such as differentiation, prol...

Transplantation of bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSCs) has been reported inhibits liver fibrosis. Several in vitro studies by co-culturing BMSCs and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) indirectly or directly in 2D models showed inhibition of HSC as the key player in liver fibrosis. In this study, we investigated direct effect of BMSCs on HSCs by co-culturing BMSCs and HSCs in 3D model as it repres...

OBJECTIVES Various methods for repairing bone defects are presented. Cell therapy is one of these methods. Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) seem to be suitable for this purpose. On the other hand, lots of biomaterials are used to improve and repair the defect in the body, so in this study we tried to produce a similar structure to the bone by the chitosan and hydroxyapatite. MATERIALS AND ME...

In this study, we hypothesized that bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) protect ischemic myocardium through paracrine effects that can be further augmented with preconditioning. In in vitro experiments, cell survival factors such as Akt and eNOS were significantly increased in BMSCs following anoxia. In the second series of experiments following coronary ligation in mice, left ventricles were random...

Introduction. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) have emerged as promising cell candidates but with poor survival after transplantation. This study was designed to investigate the efficacy of VEGF, bFGF, and IGF-1 on BMSCs' viability and proliferation both in vivo and in vitro using bioluminescence imaging (BLI). Methods. BMSCs were isolated from β-actin-Fluc(+) transgenic FV...

Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) could be induced to differentiate into neural cells under certain conditions, nevertheless, optimal protocols that could be reproducible and reliable in generating transplantable BMSCs in vitro are still not available. We studied for the first time the neural differentiation of BMSCs induced by coculturing with olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs). BMSCs and OECs...
