Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) line FLENIi001-A was reprogrammed from dermal fibroblasts using the lentiviral-hSTEMCCA-loxP vector. Fibroblasts were obtained a skin biopsy of 72-year-old Caucasian male familial Alzheimer's disease patient carrying T119I mutation in PSEN1 gene. genotype maintained and stemness pluripotency confirmed hiPSC line.

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the cytotoxicity of proroot mta (pmta), root mta (rmta) and portland cement (pc) on human gingival fibroblasts (hgfs). materials and methods: the extracts of the test materials were placed close to human gingival fibroblasts (hgfs) within 96-well plates. cellular viability was assessed using mtt assay in different intervals (freshly mixed, 4, 2...

Background  Recent investigations show that both proliferation and secretion of macromolecules by cells can be regulated by low level laser therapy (LLLT). The aim of this study was to determine whether LLLT could induce a bio-stimulatory effects on human gingival fibroblasts (HGF3-PI 53). Therefore, the effect of laser irradiation on human gingival cell proliferation and collagen type I gene ...

this study was conducted to examine if allergic contact dermatitis (acd) alters the expression of mmps in human dermal fibroblasts. fibroblasts are the primary source for mmp and matrix production in skin. mmps are known to involve in a number of physiological and pathological processes. some published data indicated a gelatinase-like activity in acute and chronic phases of allergic contact der...

background: the multifunctional transforming growth factor beta (tgf-β) is a glycoprotein that exists in three isoforms. tgf-β3 expression increases in fetal wound healing and reduces fibronectin and collagen i and iii deposition, and also improves the architecture of the neodermis which is a combination of blood vessels and connective tissue during wound healing. fibroblasts are key cells in t...
