Effect of Rat Bone Marrow Derived-Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Granulocyte Differentiation of Mononuclear Cells as Preclinical Agent in Cellbased Therapy.

Background: Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs), as a collection of hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are capable of producing all blood cell lineages. The use of cytokines, growth factors or cells capable of secreting these factors will help in stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of these cells into mature cell lines. On the other hand, MSCs are multipotent stromal cells that can be differentiated into various cell lineages.

L-carnitine Extends the Telomere Length of the Cardiac Differentiated CD117- Expressing Stem Cells.

Stem cell-based therapy has emerged as an attractive method for regenerating and repairing the lost heart organ. On other hand, poor survival and maintenance of the cells transferred into the damaged heart tissue are broadly accepted as serious barriers to enhance the efficacy of the regenerative therapy. For this reason, external factors, such as antioxidants are used as a favorite strategy by the investigators to improve the cell survival and retention properties.

Cardiac differentiation of bone-marrow-resident c-kit stem cells by L-carnitine increases through secretion of VEGF, IL6, IGF-1, and TGF- β as clinical agents in cardiac regeneration.

The idea of regenerating lost myocardium via cell-based therapies remains as highly considerable. C-kit? stem/ progenitor cells are represented to be suitable candidates for cardiac regeneration compared to other stem cells. A multitude of cytokines from these cells are known to give such multifunctional properties; however, the associated mechanisms of these factors are yet to be totally understood.

Antioxidant property of leaf extracts reduces testicular torsion/detorsion-induced ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.

The present study was aimed to determine the protective effects of L (PM leaf extracts on the testicular torsion/detorsion (T/D)-induced ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Twenty-four mature male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 200-220 g, were selected. They were randomly divided into four groups of six animals each: Sham (sham-operated rats; all the surgical steps were performed but T/D was not induced), TDC (Control group; T/D was induced and the right testicular torsion of 720° lasting two hours was followed by detorsion), TDP50 (T/D-operated rats received 50.

Natural products and phytochemical nanoformulations targeting mitochondria in oncotherapy: an updated review on resveratrol.

Mitochondria are intracellular organelles with two distinct membranes, known as an outer mitochondrial membrane and inner cell membrane. Originally, mitochondria have been derived from bacteria. The main function of mitochondria is the production of ATP.

Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticle/Gelatin: A Potential Burn Wound Healing Biomaterial.

Introduction: Over the past few decades, the application of nanotechnology has gained progressive interest for the regeneration of injured and burned tissues.

Objective: This study evaluates the effects of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticle (NP)/gelatin on burn wound healing in mice.

Materials And Methods: Sixty healthy male BALB/c mice with a full-thickness burn wound were randomized into 4 experimental groups of 15 animals each: (1) control group was treated with normal saline; (2) gelatin group was treated with gelatin-based ointment; (3) silver sulfadiazine group was treated with silver sulfadiazine 1% ointment; and (4) TiO₂ NP/gelatin group (TNG) received TiO₂ NP/gelatin.

L-carnitine significantly decreased aging of rat adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Mesenchymal stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to divide continuously and tissue regeneration potential during the transplantation. Aging and loss of cell survival, is one of the main problems in cell therapy. Since the production of free radicals in the aging process is effective, the use of antioxidant compounds can help in scavenging free radicals and prevent the aging of cells.

Comparative study on functional effects of allotransplantation of bone marrow stromal cells and adipose derived stromal vascular fraction on tendon repair: a biomechanical study in rabbits.

Objective: Tendon never returns to its complete biological and mechanical properties after repair. Bone marrow and, recently, adipose tissue have been used as sources of mesenchymal stem cells which have been proven to enhance tendon healing. In the present study, we compared the effects of allotransplantation of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) and adipose derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) on tendon mechanical properties after experimentally induced flexor tendon transection.
