purpose: to separate and characterize orbital fat-derived stem cells (ofscs) and compare its cellular and molecular properties with those of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ascs). methods: stem cells from orbital fat, abdominal fat and bone marrow aspirates have been isolated. we assessed stem cell specific cell surface markers using cytometry, ...

Objective- Investigate myocardial performance after autologous adipose-derived (ASCs) mesenchymal stem cell differentiated under equiaxial cyclic strain, transplantation in rabbits with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Design- Prospective, randomized experimental study Animals- 20 New Zealand White rabbits (2-3 kg) P...

OBJECTIVES Mesenchymal stem cells or "multipotent stromal cells" are heterogeneous cell population with self-renewal and multilinage differentiation. The aim of this study was to examine and compare the expression of important stem cell surface markers on two populations of mesenchymal stem cells, one derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth and the other derived from human adipose tissue....

the aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between rat intestine decellularized scaffold and human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells. rat large intestine was dissected in fragments and decellularized by physicochemical methods. the scaffolds were loaded by human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells expressing green fluorescent protein. microscopic sections were prepared fr...

Obesity is an unconstrained worldwide epidemic. Unraveling molecular controls in adipose tissue development holds promise to treat obesity or diabetes. Although numerous immortalized adipogenic cell lines have been established, adipose-derived stem cells from the stromal vascular fraction of subcutaneous white adipose tissues provide a reliable cellular system ex vivo much closer to adipose dev...

conclusions taken together, the combination of chemical and growth factors in the two-step induction protocol may improve the efficiency of msc differentiation into neural progenitor cells, and may be a new method for the easy and fast application of mscs in regenerative medicine in the future. results the results of real-time pcr showed that the expression of the gfap, mbp, and map-2 genes aft...
