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...

Background and Aims: Previous studies have shown that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/ stromal cells are one of the sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with the capacity to differentiate into various mesodermal cell lineages. MSCs with cytokines secretion capability, which contributes to repair damaged tissues have gained wide credence for future cell-based therapeutic applications. In th...

neuroinflammation has a significant role in induce of multiple sclerosis (ms) many approaches have been used to treat ms, but none of these methods have not been able to fully improve. one of the methods can suppress inflammation and regenerate the nervous system is the use of cell therapy. using cell therapy in pre-clinic phase can be realized, it's mechanism and potency to suppress neuro...

tissue engineering based on the adipose derived stem cells  promote a strong strategy to propagation of bone, cartilage and fat tissues in the three-dimensional scaffolds, fabricated by combining biological materials with suitable and appropriate growth factors.  in this study, a peo scaffold was used to show that mesenchymal stem cells can attach well; the aim of this study was the investigati...

The purpose of this study was the assessment of clinical, biochemical, and histologic effects of intraarticular administered adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction or bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells for treatment of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis was induced arthroscopically in the middle carpal joint of all horses, the contralateral joint being sham-operated. All horses received ...

The Low-Affinity Nerve Growth Factor Receptor (LNGFR), also known as CD271, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The CD271 cell surface marker defines a subset of multipotential mesenchymal stromal cells and may be used to isolate and enrich cells derived from bone marrow aspirate. In this study, we compare the proliferative and differentiation potentials of CD271+ and...

BACKGROUND The demand for a large amount of osteogenic cells required in bone tissue engineering warranted exploration of a new source of osteoprogenitor cells. Recent studies have demonstrated that adipose-derived stromal cells possess multiple differentiation capacities, including osteogenic potential, as bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. In the present study, the authors compared the osteo...

background bone marrow and adipose tissue are two main sources of mesenchymal stem cells (mscs). some of studies suggest that there are some differences in gene expression profile of mscs-derived from various tissues. to investigate gene expression profile by qrt-pcr, an appropriate reference gene with stable expression level should be chosen for normalizing data.  this study was designed to ev...
