introduction cholinergic system is one of the important systems of mammalian cns. cholinergic neurons distributed in brain and spinal cord and contributed to principal functions like: consciousness, learning and memory, and motor control. in this study we investigated the differentiation potentiality of mouse embryonic stem cells toward cholinergic neurons. the aim of this study was to evaluate...

background: differentiation ofmesenchymal stem cells (mscs) to hepatocyte-like cells could be associated with development of liver function factors. the impact of differentiation-dependent changes on dna integrity is not well understood. in this study, hepatocytes and their progenitor stem cells were treated with aflatoxin b1 (afb1) and amplification of selected genes linked to dna damage was e...

stem cells are naïve or master cells. this means they can transform into special 200 cell types as needed by body, and each of these cells has just one function. stem cells are found in many parts of the human body, although some sources have richer concentrations than others. some excellent sources of stem cells, such as bone marrow, peripheral blood, cord blood, other tissue stem cells and hu...

Embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiating to variety of cell tissues including cardiomyocytes. This developmental change is accompanied with a great deal of ion channel expression and functions. Mouse stem cell derived cardiomyocytes were prepared and separated to yield isolated single cell suspension for cell current recording. In the present study some properties of the K(+)-current...

introduction: extracellular matrix (ecm) components significantly influence the growth characteristics of cell, development of spontaneous contractile activity, andmorphologic differentiation. the present study evaluates the effect of ecm ongenotypic and physiologic characteristics of cardiomyocytes derived from embryonic stem (es) cells. material and methods: embryoid bodies derived from mouse...
