The future development of medicine will greatly depend on research, knowledge and clinical application of stem cells. In recent years, stem cells especially; skin stem cells have been very interesting and amazing targets for study and scientific application in the following fields : 1- Cell-based therapy; 2- Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering; 3- Gene therapy; 4- Therapeutic cloning; ...

spinal cord injury (sci) is one of the devastating conditions leading to functional and neurological deficits following road traffic accidents. to date, there is no definite treatment for repairing damaged spinal cord tissue. in this regard, cell therapy opens a new window in front of scientists by using different cells such as mesenchymal stem cells, olfactory ensheathing cells, schwann cells,...

in this study, our aim was to produce a generation of gmp-grade adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. according to our results, we fulfill to establish consistent and also reproducible current good manufacturing practice (cgmp) compliant adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from five female donors. the isolated cells were cultured in dmem supplemented...

the use of low level laser to reduce pain, inflammation and edema, to promote wound, deeper tissues and nerves healing, and to prevent tissue damage has been known for almost forty years since the invention of lasers. this review will cover some of the proposed cellular mechanisms responsible for the effect of visible light on mammalian cells, including cytochrome c oxidase (with absorption pea...

stem cells can be valuable model systems for drug discovery and modelling human diseases as well as to investigate cellular interactions and molecular events in the early stages of development. controlling the differentiation of stem cells into specific germ layers provides a potential source of highly specialized cells for therapeutic applications. in recent years, finding individual propertie...

liver failure, in an acute or chronic form, is a growing health problem ranking as one of the leading causes of death worldwide. inborn errors of metabolism characterized by defects in hepatic enzymes or other proteins with metabolic functions, such as receptors or transporters accompanied with environmental factors involve etiology and presentation of liver failure. currently, the only establi...

background currently, clinical endodontics includes procedures that are based on the ability of stem cells to accomplish repair (eg, direct pulp capping, apexogenesis, apexification, and even pulpal regeneration). an attempt is made to critically assess the current status in pulp regeneration therapy. methods: systematically, 2 distinctly different strategies exist involving stem cells for the ...
