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 ...
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 ...
Induced pluripotent stem cells for cartilage repair: current status and future perspectives
(AO Research Institute Davos, 2018-09-11)
[Abstract] The establishment of cartilage regenerative medicine is an important clinical issue, but the search for cell sources able to restore cartilage integrity proves to be challenging. Human mesenchymal stromal cells ...
Human cartilage engineering in an in vitro repair model using collagen scaffolds and mesenchymal stromal cells
(Ivyspring, 2017-09-28)
[Abstract] The purpose of this study was to investigate cartilage repair of in vitro lesion models using human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) with different collagen (Col) scaffolds.
Lesions were made ...
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 ...
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 ...
Tips and tricks for successfully culturing and adapting human induced pluripotent stem cells
(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 ...
Versatility of induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) for improving the knowledge on musculoskeletal diseases
(MDPI, 2020-08-25)
[Abstract]
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) represent an unlimited source of pluripotent cells
capable of di erentiating into any cell type of the body. Several studies have demonstrated the valuable
use of iPSCs ...
Immortalizing mesenchymal stromal cells from aged donors while keeping their essential features
(Hindawi, 2020-06-16)
[Abstract] Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) obtained from aged patients are prone to senesce and diminish their differentiation potential, therefore limiting their usefulness for osteochondral ...
