Potential use of the human amniotic membrane as a scaffold in human articular cartilage repair
(Springer, 2010-04-13)
[Abstract] The human amniotic membrane (HAM) is an abundant and readily obtained tissue that may be an important source of scaffold for transplanted chondrocytes in cartilage regeneration in vivo. To evaluate the potential ...
Quantification of cells expressing mesenchymal stem cell markers in healthy and osteoarthritic synovial membranes
(Journal of Rheumatology Publishing Company, 2010-11-15)
[Abstract] Objective. To quantify cells expressing mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) markers in synovial mem- branes from human osteoarthritic (OA) and healthy joints.
Methods. Synovial membranes from OA and healthy joints were ...
Tissue array analysis for the differentiation of gliosis from gliomas
(Spandidos, 2011-03-22)
[Abstract] The aim of this study was to provide a methodology to make a clear distinction between malignant tumors and morphologically similar benign processes, by examining the expression of EGFR, VEGF, HIF1-α, survivin, ...
Expression of Wnt gene family and frizzled receptors in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas
(Spirnger, 2009)
[Abstract] Genes of the Wnt and Frizzled class, expressed in HNSCC tissue and cell lines, have an established role in cell morphogenesis and differentiation, and also they have oncogenic properties. We studied Wnt and Fz ...
Usefulness of mesenchymal cell lines for bone and cartilage regeneration research
(MDPI, 2019-12-13)
[Abstract]
The unavailability of sufficient numbers of human primary cells is a major roadblock
for in vitro repair of bone and/or cartilage, and for performing disease modelling experiments.
Immortalized mesenchymal ...
Current Development of Alternative Treatments for Endothelial Decompensation: Cell-Based Therapy
(Elsevier, 2021-04-01)
[Abstract]
Current treatment for corneal endothelial dysfunction consists in the replacement of corneal endothelium by keratoplasty. Owing to the scarcity of donor corneas and the increasing number of transplants, alternative ...
Generation of mesenchymal cell lines derived from aged donors
(MDPI, 2021-10-01)
[Abstract] Background: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the capacity for self-renewal and multi-differentiation, and for this reason they are considered a potential cellular source in regenerative medicine of cartilage ...
Tips and Tricks for Successfully Culturing and Adapting Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells [Protocol]
(Cell Press, 2021-12)
[Abstract] Reprogramming somatic cells toward pluripotency became possible over a decade ago. Since then, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have served as a versatile and powerful tool not only for basic research but ...
Analysis of Cryopreservation Protocols and Their Harmful Effects on the Endothelial Integrity of Human Corneas
(MDPI, 2021-11-22)
[Abstract] Corneal cryopreservation can partially solve the worldwide concern regarding donor cornea shortage for keratoplasties. In this study, human corneas were cryopreserved using two standard cryopreservation protocols ...
Ovine mesenchymal stromal cells: morphologic, phenotypic and functional characterization for osteochondral tissue engineering
(PLoS ONE, 2017-01-31)
[Abstract] Introduction. Knowledge of ovine mesenchymal stromal cells (oMSCs) is currently expanding. Tissue engineering combining scaffolding with oMSCs provides promising therapies for the treatment of osteochondral ...
