Endometrium obtained during menses from 46 healthy women in reproductive age was investigated morphologically and cytospectrophotometrically in order to solve the problem on the source of the cells reepithelizing the uterine mucous membrane after desquamation. It was stated that desquamation takes place not in the whole functional layer of endometrium, some mucous fragments, covered with persisting luminal epithelium, are always preserved. During endometrial regeneration the cells of the luminal and glandular epithelia and those of endometrial stroma are predominantly diploid. The amount of premitotic cells in population is so small that they cannot secure any intensive cellular proliferation. Mitogenesis in endometrium is stimulated only after a complete restoration of the epithelial layer. It is suggested that persisting luminal epithelium is the source of cells for reepithelization; they migrate towards endometrial "wounds" and repair defects in the uterine mucosa during the regeneration phase.

Aims: Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) are a rich source of hematopoietic stem cells that have been widely used in experimental therapies for patients with various diseases, including fractures.Activation of angiogenesis is believed to be one of the major modes of action of BM-MNCs; however, the essential mechanism by which BM-MNCs activate angiogenesis remains elusive. This study aimed to demonstrate that BM-MNCs promote bone healing by enhancing angiogenesis through direct cell-to-cell interactions via gap junctions, in addition to a previously reported method.

Purpose: Elevated methylglyoxal (MGO) levels and altered immune cell responses are observed in diabetes. MGO is thought to modulate immune cell activation. The current study investigated whether fasting or post-glucose-load plasma MGO concentrations are associated with circulating immune cell counts and activation in a large cohort study.

Background: Telomere length (TL) is a marker of cellular health and aging. Physical exercise has been associated with longer telomeres and, therefore, healthier aging. However, results supporting such effects vary across studies.

Seaweeds have been utilized as food, fodder, fertilizer, and medicine since ancient times; nevertheless, they have received only a little attention. In the current work, we extracted the sulfated polysaccharide from a marine source and investigated its anti-arthritic potential . The isolated and freeze-dried polysaccharide was tested for acute oral toxicity based on OECD 423.

Among the various sources of selenium supplementations, the Se-methylselenocysteine (SeMC) is a natural organic selenium compound that has been demonstrated to have multiple advantages in terms of metabolism efficiency and biosafety in animals. Nevertheless, the genome-wide impact of SeMC on gene transcription remains to be elucidated. In this study, we employed an LPS-stimulated chicken HD11 macrophage-like cell model to identify the principal transcription factors involved in transcriptome regulation responsible for SeMC treatment.
