introduction: sox9 is a transcriptional activator which is necessary for chondrogenesis. sox6 are closely related to dna-binding proteins that critically enhance its function. therefore, to carry out the growth plate chondrocyte differentiation program, sox9 and sox6 collaborate genomewide. chondrocyte differentiation is also known to be promoted by glucocorticoids through unknown molecular mec...

Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) which give rise to different blood cell types are present within the bone marrow microenvironment, especially in flat bones such as skull, vertebrae, pelvis and chest. Interacting factors such as stromal derived factor-1/CXCR4, very late antigen-4/vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, Lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1/ intercellular adhesion molec...

The evaluation of incidence of bone formation by whole syngeneic bone marrow cell suspension and by bone marrow stromal cell cultured in vitro injection into kidney parenchyma was done. Bone tissue was found in 26 kidneys out of 100 injected with whole bone marrow cells suspension. Cultured stromal bone marrow cells grafted into kidney parenchyma produced ossicles in only 4 out of 101 injected ...

Bone marrow is the point of origin of several cell types, including stromal cells. Adherent bone marrow stromal cells can differentiate into chondrocytes, adipocytes and osteoblasts. Several substances which modulate the dynamics and differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells have been identified. Recently it has been discovered that those bone marrow cells which are non-adherent in tissue cu...

introduction demyelination is a common lesion of spinal cord injury; cell therapy is an approach for replacing the lost oligodendrocytes. objective in this study, bone marrow stromal cells (bmscs) have been transdifferentiated into oligodendrocyte-like cells (olcs) and used in cytotherapy of contused spinal cords in rats. materials and methods the bmscs were collected from rat long bones, cultu...

objective(s): intracerebral injection of bone marrow stromal cells (bmscs) is being investigated as a therapeutic tool to prevent alzheimer's disease (ad). our aim was to investigate the effects of bmscs by intrathecal injection in ad rat model. materials and methods: bmscs were obtained from the bone marrow of wistar rat and transplanted into ad rat model via intrathecal injection. the ra...

introduction: an induction of osteogenic differentiation in rat bone marrow stromal cell cultures by dexamethasone was reported. materials and methods: the marrow stromal cells obtained from 4 to 6 weeks - old spruge-dawely male rats were grown in primary culture for 7 days and then subcultured for 20 days. the cells were cultured in either dmem medium containing 15% fetal calf serum, antibioti...

background: bone marrow stromal cells (bmsc) have been successfully employed for movement deficit recovery in spinal cord injury (sci) rat models. one of the unsettled problems in cell transplantation is the relative high proportion of cell death, specifically after neural differentiation. according to our previous studies, p75 receptor, known as the death receptor, is only expressed in bmsc in...
