Background and Aims:In neurodegenerative disorders,oxidative stress mediated by reactive oxygen species is strongly associated with increased neuronal damages which can lead to apoptosis. Pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic gene expressions are changed during the cell differentiation that affect cell viability and differentiation. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effects of hyd...

Background and Aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a preferred cell source for the generation of hepatocyte-like cells in regenerative medicine. They can be isolated from different sources, including adipose tissues. The Raman spectroscopy approach was evaluated for quick and efficient identification of MSCs differentiation status and a broader perspective on cell differentiation. Material...

Background: Embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells derived from germ cell tumors are valuable tools for investigating differentiation and developmental biology processes in vitro. The advantage of the reproducible and rapid expansion of these cell lines provides a useful alternative to embryos for the study of mammalian cell differentiation. During early stages of cell differentiation, the rate of tran...

background: this cross sectional comparative study was performed to compare the mean fluorescence intensity of cluster of differentiation 45 between healthy individuals and patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. patients and methods: thirty three healthy individuals (mean age 11 years) and 41 patients with b cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (mean age 7 years) were enrolled in the study in...

Back ground: Although the cell differentiation is an inseparable part of development in multicellular organisms, the regulating molecular pathway of it still is not fully defined. In the other hand, apoptosis is a fundamental physiological process which plays an essential role in a variety of biological events during development. Moreover, recent studies have found that apoptosis shows several ...

  Objective(s): Stem cell differentiation into different cell lineages depends upon several factors, cell cycle control elements and intracellular signaling elements, including P15INK4b and P16INK4a genes. Epigenetics may be regarded as a control mechanism which is affected by these factors with respect to their promoter structure.   Materials and Methods: The CD34 + cord blood s...
