objective: evaluating the effects of p-benzoquinone and hydroquinone on the runx2 expression and osteoblastic differentiation of human marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs). materials and methods: bone marrow mscs obtained by cultivating marrow mononuclear cells, were exposed to 10μm of either p-benzoquinone or hydroquinone. following chemical treatment, runx2 gene expression was assess...

background: the aim of this study was optimization of the polyfect gene delivery method of pcdna3.1 expression vector transfected with the mouse pdx-1 gene in three different kinds of mesenchymal stem cells and hepa cells as well as comparison of transfection efficiency leading to expression of the mentioned gene in the cell types used. materials and methods: rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal...

Brain injuries that caused by strokes (result of intra partum ischemia) are a frequent cause of prenatal mortality and morbidity with limited therapeutic options. Transplanting human mesenchymal stem cells (hmscs) indicates improvement in hypoxic Ischemic brain injury (HIBD) by secretion growth factor stimulating repair processes (Hmscs) known as multi potent cells which isolated from bone marr...

conclusions large amounts of preclinical studies have been made of stem cells and there is an increasing interest to perform these studies within the human population but preclinical studies are insufficient; therefore, much more and efficient studies should be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stem cells. context musculoskeletal injuries may be painful, troublesome, life limitin...

Introduction: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great promise in the field of regenerative medicine.Although originally isolated from bone marrow, MSCs have since been obtained from a variety of adult and neonatal tissues including the adipose tissue. Stemness and multipotential features of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) has been highlighted in many studies but there are many dark aspects in ex...

background: adipose-derived stem cells (adsc) could be an appealing alternative to bone marrow stem cells (bmsc) for engineering cell-based osteoinductive grafts. meanwhile, prior studies have demonstrated that melatonin can stimulate osteogenic differentiation. therefore, we assayed and compared the melatonin effect on osteogenic differentiation of bmsc with that of adsc. methods: mesenchymal ...

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are important candidates for MSC-based cellular therapy. Current paradigm states that MSCs support local progenitor cells in damaged tissue through paracrine signaling. Therefore, study of paracrine effects and secretome of MSCs could lead to the appreciation of mechanisms and molecules associated with the therapeutic effects of these cells. This study ...
