The effects of human mesenchymal stem cells on neurological functions and behavioral reactions of animals and on damaged brain tissue were studied on the model of focal cerebral ischemia in rats. Homing and differentiation of transplanted mesenchymal stem cells were also studied. Significant regression of neurological disorders after cell transplantation was noted, no appreciable shifts were detected by magnetic resonance tomography. Homing of transplanted cells was detected mainly in the zone of focal ischemia. Some cells died, others exhibited signs of differentiation into neurons and glia.

Background: Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles derived from various cell types and tissues that have many potential applications, generating great interest from researchers. One particularly intriguing application of exosomes is their use as a direct therapeutic for aesthetic indications. Several studies and case reports have explored the impact of exosomes for numerous cosmetic concerns but a consensus on the outcomes of these studies has not been established.

Bone tissue regeneration can be affected by various architectonical features of 3D porous scaffold, for example, pore size and shape, strut size, curvature, or porosity. However, the design of additively manufactured structures studied so far was based on uniform geometrical figures and unit cell structures, which often do not resemble the natural architecture of cancellous bone. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of architectonical features of additively manufactured (aka 3D printed) titanium scaffolds designed based on microtomographic scans of fragments of human femurs of individuals of different ages on in vitro response of human bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC).

Bone homeostasis encompasses two interrelated aspects: bone remodeling and cartilage metabolism. Disruption of bone homeostasis can lead to the development of metabolic bone diseases such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. The maintenance of bone homeostasis is a complex process that does not solely rely on the functions of the bone tissue itself.

Unlabelled: Cartilage and joint damage can lead to cartilage degeneration. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have the potential to address cartilage damage. Hence, this study probed the mechanism of BMSC-extracellular matrix (BMSC-ECM) in promoting damaged chondrocyte repair by regulating the Notch1/RBPJ pathway.

Homeostasis of tissues requires a complex balance between cell proliferation and cell death. The disruption of this balance leads to tumors. Cancer is a mortal disease that spreads all over the body, it is an irregular cell growth.
