objective(s) mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are nonhematopoietic stromal cells that are capable of differentiating into and contribute to the regeneration of mesenchymal tissues. human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs) are ideal targets in cell transplantation and tissue engineering. enhanced green fluorescent protein (egfp) has been an important reporter gene for gene therapy. the aim of this stud...

abstract background: determination of transgenic embryos from non transgenic embryos sibling is an important step in producing homozygous transgenic mice. these steps need by pcr or southern blotting followed extraction of dna, but both techniques require skill and consume time. objective: the aim of this study was simulation of high accuracy method using novel enhanced green fluorescent protei...

background: the transcription factor oct-4, is an important marker of undifferentiating level and a key regulating factor for maintenance of pluripotency in cells. establishment of an oct-4 promoter-based reporter system is an appropriate tool for monitoring the differentiation of embryonic stem cells both in vivo and in vitro. methods: in the present study, we report construction of a recombin...

purification and isolation of cellular target proteins for monoclonal antibody (mab) production is a difficult and time-consuming process. immunization of mice with murine cell lines stably transfected with genes coding for xenogenic target molecules is an alternative method for mouse immunization and mab production. here we present data on transfection efficiency of some commercial reagents us...

background: stem cell therapy in small animal medicineis still in its infancy and few in vitro and in vivo research projectsregarding animal mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have beencarried out. on the other hand, cell tracking is the first step of thecell-based therapies and is essential to recognize cell fate posttransplantation. objectives: the aim of this study was toisolate, characterize, an...

Background: Baculovirus expression system is one of the most attractive and powerful eukaryotic expression systems for the production of recombinant proteins. The presence of a biomarker is required to monitor transfection efficiency or protein expression levels in insect cells. Methods: The aim of this study was to construct a baculovirus expression vector encoding a copepod super green fluore...
