Transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells optimized with IFN-γ is a potential procedure for modification of motor impairment in multiple sclerosis cases: a preclinical systematic review and meta-analysis study.

Stem cells transplantation (SCT) is known as a newfound strategy for multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) contain various regenerative features. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a laboratory model of MS.

The Effects of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Loaded with Oncolytic on Mouse Models of Colorectal Cancer.

Background: Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide. Colorectal cancer is the second most common type. Additional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be recommended.

Anti-metastatic effect of taraxasterol on prostate cancer cell lines.

Background And Purpose: Prostate cancer is the second cause of death among men. Nowadays, treating various cancers with medicinal plants is more common than other therapeutic agents due to their minor side effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of taraxasterol on the prostate cancer cell line.

Effect of Calcitriol Treated Mesenchymal Stem Cells as an Immunomodulation Micro-environment on Allergic Asthma in a Mouse Model.

Background: Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory illness of the respiratory system characterized by an increase in the number of inflammatory cells in the airways and trouble breathing. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the potential to be used in inflammatory diseases as a cellular immunosuppressive treatment. They express calcitriol receptors and communicate with other immunocytes, which increases their anti-inflammatory activity.

Cell therapy procedure using anti-inflammatory macrophage M2 can potentially reduce Clinical Score in animals with Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: A preclinical systematic review and meta-analysis study.

Macrophage M2 (MP2)-based cell therapy is a novel medicinal treatment for animals with Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE) as an experimental model of multiple sclerosis (MS). This systematic review and meta-analysis study was designed to assess the overall therapeutic effects of MP2 cell therapy on Clinical Score and motor impairment in EAE-induced animals. All experiments on MP2 cell therapy in animals with EAE were gathered (by October 2, 2022) from English (PubMed, Scopus, WoS, Science Direct, and ISC) and Persian (MagIran and SID) databases.

Stem cell therapy as a recent advanced approach in male infertility.

Infertility is one of the most common problems in the world that has negative effects on society and infertile people. Among the various causes of infertility, male infertility accounts for almost half of all infertility cases. Despite advances in medicine, current male infertility treatments such as assisted reproductive technology (ART) have not been successful in treating all types of male infertility.

Anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of hull-less pumpkin extract on human papillary thyroid carcinoma cell line.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is one of the most common cancers of the endocrine system. Previous studies have shown that the extract of hull-less pumpkin seed (HLPS) has a significant anti-cancer effect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of this plant extract on the proliferation of PTC cells.

Intra-arterial transplantation of neural stem cells improve functional recovery after transient ischemic stroke in adult rats.

Objectives: The neural stem cell transplantation has been proposed as alternative therapy to promote functional recovery after various neurological disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intra-arterial transplantation of adult neural stem cells on improving local brain ischemia injuries.

Materials And Methods: In this study, 32 male Wistar rats were used.

Development of a validated HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of flavonoids in Cuscuta chinensis Lam. by ultra-violet detection.

Background: Cuscuta species known as dodder, have been used in traditional medicine of eastern and southern Asian countries as liver and kidney tonic. Flavonoids are considered as the main biologically active constituents in Cuscuta plants especially in C. chinensis Lam.
