The study was aimed to evaluate if the modified in situ cryopreservation could affect the biological function of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in vitro. Mesenchymal stem cells from human bone marrow were isolated by standard method and characterized with their morphology, cell-surface antigen profile and differentiation repertoire in vitro. The culture-expanded MSC were cryopreserved in situ with culture medium (DMEM-LG) containing 10% D MSO and 30% selected FCS in -70 degrees C. Following recovery of cryopreservation, differentiation to adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteoblast in vitro and cell cycle analysis were performed to investigate whether the cryopreservation would change the differentiation potential of MSC. The results showed that after recovery of cryopreservation, there was no changes detected as compared with the culture-expanded MSC in both differentiation potency and growth pattern at 12 weeks. In conclusions: this optimized short term in situ cryopreservation at -70 degrees C could retain biological characteristics of human MSC for at least 3 months, and this method may be useful for cryopreservation of hum an bone marrow MSCs.

Stem cell therapy in dogs has increased considerably in recent years; however, there are few publications on the treatment of perianal fistulas (PF) in this species. The aim of this open-label clinical trial was to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of a new protocol for the in situ administration of low-dose adipose-derived allogeneic stem cells (ASCs) for the treatment of refractory spontaneous perianal fistula. The methodology consisted of applying one to three doses of 5 × 10 cryopreserved allogeneic ASCs to each fistula.

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation has been widely investigated for preserving female fertility. In the present study, we aimed to compare the effects of three concentrations (1, 1.5, and 3 M) of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) on the vitrification of ovarian tissue.

Myrtle rust is a plant disease caused through infection by the fungus and was first detected in Australia in 2010. The disease has spread through New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, the Northern Territory, and Tasmania. In this short timeframe, myrtle rust has had a devastating impact on many native species in the family Myrtaceae, including several rainforest species that are now at risk of extinction.

Initially observed on synthetic nanoparticles, the existence of biomolecular corona and its role in determining nanoparticle identity and function are now beginning to be acknowledged in biogenic nanoparticles, particularly in extracellular vesicles - membrane-enclosed nanoparticle shuttling proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolites which are released by cells for physiological and pathological communication - we developed a methodology based on fluorescence correlation spectroscopy to track biomolecular corona formation on extracellular vesicles derived from human red blood cells and amniotic membrane mesenchymal stromal cells when these vesicles are dispersed in human plasma. The methodology allows for tracking corona dynamics under physiological conditions. Results evidence that the two extracellular vesicle populations feature distinct corona dynamics.
