Objective(s):Cardiomyocytes have small potentials for renovation and proliferation in adult life. The most challenging goal in the field of cardiovascular tissue engineering is the creation of an engineered heart muscle. Tissue engineering with a combination of stem cells and nanofibrous scaffolds has attracted interest with regard to Cardiomyocyte creation applications. Human adipose-derived s...

leiomyosarcoma in birds is relatively rare. this tumor as a muscle neoplasm was reported in captive and free ranging birds. smooth muscle cells may develop to the leiomyosracoma, but splenic smooth muscle trabeculae is most common site of the tumor growth. although budgerigars have an incidence of neoplastic diseases but smooth muscle tumors were rarely reported in this species. to the best of ...

radiation-related wounds challenge surgeons in all disciplines of surgery. wound-healing complications are commonplace, and solutions for reconstruction are limited. muscle and musculocutaneous flaps have improved this situation. but the question is, does previous radiation of the muscle to be transposed affect the outcome? 143 consecutive previously irradiated patients treated with muscle or m...

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are a very promising transplantable stem cell source for a variety of cell replacement therapies. As the main source of MSC is bone marrow (BM), most of studies have been done on BM-derived MSC (BM-MSC). Umbilical cord (UC)-derived MSC (UC-MSC) which are recently introduced, is one of the good alternative source for these cells. The objective of this stu...
