Schwann cells play an important role in the peripheral nervous system, especially in nerve repair following injury, so artificial nerve regeneration requires an effective technique for obtaining purified Schwann cells. In vivo and in vitro pre-degeneration of peripheral nerves have been shown to obtain high-purity Schwann cells. We believed that in vitro pre-degeneration was simple and controll...

Postnatal vasculogenesis is considered to be involved in neovascularization of adult tissues, because bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were isolated from circulating mononuclear cells in peripheral blood and were shown to incorporate into sites of physiological and pathological neovascularization and to differentiate into mature endothelial cells. EPCs might have an attra...

The origin and turnover of efferent populations of mouse mononuclear phagocytes has been described. Mononuclear phagocytes were defined as mononuclear cells which are able to adhere to glass and phagocytize. In vitro labeling studies with thymidine-(3)H showed that monocytes in the peripheral blood and peritoneal macrophages do not multiply and can be considered end cells in a normal, steady st...

background: the use of stem cells is considered as an appropriate source in cell therapy and tissue engineering. differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hipscs) to hepatocyte-like cells (hlcs) on mouse embryonic fibroblasts (mefs) feeders is confronted with several problems that hinder the clinical applications of these differentiated cells for the treatment of liver injuries. ...

Myocardial infarction (MI) continues to represent a major health problem. Improved healing and/or regeneration of infarcted myocardium by injection of progenitor cells has been proposed as a promising approach to prevent cardiac remodelling or even restore myocardial tissue. Several adult stem cell types have shown efficacy in the preclinical setting, including skeletal myoblasts, umbilical cor...

Abstract INTRODUCTION Relapse rates of pressure ulcers (PUs) are very high in spinal cord injured patients. That is the reason why alternative therapies, such as using stem cells derived from bone marrow, have been developed. The objective our study to compare this technique infiltration - infusion mononuclear with conventional surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective was carried out patie...
