human diploid fibroblast cells produce a spectrum of necessary growth factors and extracellular matrix (ecm) components essential for growth and proliferation of a variety of other cell types. in this study, the effect of five human embryonic fibroblast cell lines, isolated from liver, lung, skin and foreskin tissues, was investigated. a coculture system analyse was employed to cloning efficien...

plant-based drugs are regarded promising recently. scrophularia has been shown various biological activities such as antimicrobial, antitumor and anti-inflammatory properties. according to pervious researches, bacteria are becoming resistant to some kinds of antibiotics, so it is prominent to find more reliable sources against them. here staphylococcus aureus as a common type of gram- positive ...

background: since embryonic stem (es) cells have the dual ability to proliferate indefinitely and differentiate into multiple tissue types, es cells could potentially provide an unlimited cell supply for human transplantation. objective: in order to study the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (mes) cells, they were cultured in suspension by using es media without leukemia inhibitory facto...

Galectin-1 and superoxide dismutase are two known molecules in the wound healing process that induce such healing by different mechanisms in the wound site. Larval therapy is one of the methods use by Lucilia sericata fly larvae, nowadays returned to the list of therapeutic methods despite chronic diabetic ulcers and antibiotic resistance of bacteria. In this study, we aimed to evaluat...

Achillea eriophora D.C. (Asteraceae), an endemic species in Iran, is used extensively in Iranian folk medicine to treat various ailments, including gastrointestinal disorders, skin inflammations and wound healing. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of the methanolic extract of  A. eriophora leaves on the stimulation of human fibroblast cell proliferation and migration as two ...

as in iranian traditional medicine, bee venom (bv) is a promising treatment for the rheumatoid arthritis (ra) which is considered as a problematic human chronic inflammatory disease in the present time. smoking is considered to be a major risk factor in ra onset and severity. the main aim of this study is to investigate the effects of bv on cigarette smoke-induced inflammatory response in fibro...

In this paper, we consider the problem of active learning in trigonometric polynomial networks and give a necessary and sufficient condition of sample points to provide the optimal generalization capability. By analyzing the condition from the functional analytic point of view, we clarify the mechanism of achieving the optimal generalization capability. We also show that a set of training examp...
