Oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) is the most important first step in in vitro embryo production. One prerequisite for the success of IVM in oocytes is to provide a rich culture microenvironment that meets the nutritional needs of developing oocytes. We applied different equine amniotic fluid mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium (eAFMSC-CM) from passages 7, 18, and 27 to porcine oocytes during IVM to determine its effects on oocyte development and subsequent embryo development, specifically. The eAFMSC-CM from passage 7 (eAFMSC-CMp7) has a considerable impact on 9 genes: BAX, BCL2, SOD2, NRF2, TNFAIP6, PTGS2, HAS2, Cx37, and Cx43, which are associated with cumulus cell mediated oocyte maturation. GSH levels and distribution of mitochondrial and cortical granules were significantly increased in oocytes incubated with eAFMSC-CMp7. In addition, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities were high after IVM 44 h with eAFMSC-CMp7. After in vitro fertilization, blastocyst quality was significantly increased in the eAFMSC-CMp7 group compared to control. Lastly, the antioxidant effect of eAFMSC-CMp7 substantially regulated the expression of apoptosis, pluripotency related genes and decreased autophagy activity in blastocysts. Taken together, this study demonstrated that the eAFMSC-CMp7 enhanced the cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes and subsequent embryonic development by generating high antioxidant activity.

Keratinocytes are the primary component of the epidermis, so maintaining the precise balance between proliferation and differentiation is essential for conserving epidermal structure and function. Rosae multiflorae fructus extract (RMFE) has wide application in the cosmetic industry, but the molecular mechanisms underlying beneficial effects on keratinocytes are still not fully understood. In this study, we found that RMFE promoted epidermal differentiation and enhanced the barrier function of normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and three-dimensional epidermis model in culture.

To investigate the effect of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the biological performance of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) under oxidative stress status induced by hydrogen peroxide (HO). The hDPSCs were isolated by using tissue block separation method from healthy permanent teeth extracted for orthodontic reason. hDPSCs surface markers CD34, CD45, CD90 and CD105 were detected by flow cytometry.

Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that regulates cell immune responses in a cell type-specific and ligand-dependent manner. In the central nervous system, astrocytic AhR plays important roles in regulating neuroinflammation by mediating responses to endogenous ligands generated from the inflammation-induced indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1)/kynurenine (KYN) pathway. We previously demonstrated that reduction of AhR expression decreases lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pro-inflammatory responses in microglia.

Ultraviolet (UV) exposure causes direct and indirect damages to skin structures. Human adipose stem cell-conditioned medium (hASC-CM) is a collection of several soluble factors, such as cytokines, chemokines, and Growth Factors (GF), secreted by almost all living cells in the extracellular space which support wound healing and skin rejuvenation. To determine the effects of human adipose stem cell-conditioned medium (hASC-CM) in photoaged skin and evaluate photoaging improvement after treatment.

Movento an insecticide containing spirotetramat, has been shown to cause severe toxicity in humans and rats. Due to the widespread use of the Movento in agriculture, and since the cardiac effects of this toxin have not been investigated in any study so far, in this study, for the first time, the effect of movento on the structure and function of the heart in rats was investigated. 24 adults' male Wistar rats randomly divided to 4 experimental groups: 1- control (CTL), 2- Movento (M) 3- M + Basal media (BM) 4- M + Conditioned medium (CM).
