Background: It is still controversial that the stem cells isolated from human dental pulp meets the criteria for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of the present study was to examine whether or not they are MSCs, or are distinct stem cells population residing in tooth pulp. Methods: Adherent fibroblastic cells in the culture of pulp tissue from human third molars were propagated through se...

background: the aim of this study was to investigate the percentage of the stem cells population in human endometrial tissue sections and cultured cells at fourth passage. methods: human endometrial specimens were divided into two parts, one part for morphological studies and the other part for in vitro culture. full thickness of human normal endometrial sections and cultured endometrial cells ...

objective: the exfoliated human deciduous tooth (shed) contain multipotent stem cells that identified to be a population of highly proliferative and clonogenic .these cells are capable of differentiating into a variety of cell types including neural cells, adipocytes, and odontoblasts. material and methods: normal exfoliated human deciduous incisors collected from six- to nine-years-old childre...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from white adipose tissue are considered to be an appropriate therapeutic candidate for various human diseases due their natural ability maintain homeostasis. They have also been use as a alternative sufficient availability and ease of harvesting. MSC play important role in the process adipogenesis energy metabolism that is directly related pathogenesis dege...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have been recently received increasing attention for cell-based therapy, especially in regenerative medicine. however, the low survival rate of these cells restricts their therapeutic applications. it is hypothesized that autophagy might play an important role in cellular homeostasis and survival. this study aims to investigate the regenerative potentia...

background: wound healing of burned skin remains a major goal in public health. previous reports showed that the bone marrow stem cells were potent in keratinization and vascularization of full thickness skin wounds. methods: in this study, mesenchymal stem cells were derived from rat adipose tissues and characterized by flowcytometry. staining methods were used to evaluate their differentiatio...

in this present study, we examined the differentiation potential of human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (hbmscs) into hepatocytes on a three-dimentional (3d) nanofibrous scaffold formed by poly (ε-caprolactone) (pcl), collagen and polyethersulfone (pes). the nanofiber was prepared by the electrospining technique. hbmscs were isolated using combining gradient density centrifugation ...

ex vivo expansion of human umbilical cord blood cells (hucbc) is explored by several investigators to enhance the repopulating potential of hucbc. the proliferation and expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells (hsc) in ex vivo culture was examined with the goal of generating a suitable clinical protocol for expanding hsc for patient transplantation. using primary human mesenchymal stem cells...

background: the aim of this study was optimization of the polyfect gene delivery method of pcdna3.1 expression vector transfected with the mouse pdx-1 gene in three different kinds of mesenchymal stem cells and hepa cells as well as comparison of transfection efficiency leading to expression of the mentioned gene in the cell types used. materials and methods: rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal...
