Background: Gestational weight gain is an impressive factor in the fetal outcome. Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is one of the most important problems during fetal period that may lead to many perinatal and long-term complications and growing neonatal morbidities and mortalities. The aim of the study was to ascertain the relationship between umbilical cord blood leptin concentration and...

objective: this study investigated the effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) and conditioned medium injection on cell infiltration in the brains of an experimental c57bl/6 mice model of autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae). methods: eae was induced with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (35-55 peptides) in 20 mice. mscs were obtained from the adipose tissue of c57bl/6 mice a...

objective: micrornas (mirnas) are noncoding rnas that function as key regulators of diverse biological activities such as cellular metabolism, cell proliferation and cell cycle regulation. recent studies have indicated the high potential of these small molecules to control stem cell differentiation into desired cells. the aim of present study is to investigate the possible effect of let-7f on e...

objective(s) some investigation has indicated that adipose-derived stem cells possess different surface epitopes and differentiation potential according to the localization of fat pad from which the cells were derived. in the present study proliferation capacity and aging of such cells were explored. materials and methods adherent cells were isolated from the collagenase digests of adipose tiss...

objective(s):atherosclerosis is chronic inflammatory process triggered by oxidative stress. oxidative stress can increase hydrogen peroxide (h2o2)level, which induce atherosclerosis through the processes such as formation of perivascular adipose tissue (pvat), foam cells, and atherosclerotic plaque. antioxidant is needed to control negative effects of oxidative stress. one source of antioxidant...
