    Abstract

    Rutin-Zn(II) Complex Promotes Bone Formation – a Concise Assessment in Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells and Zebrafish

    The osteogenic role of prepared complex under in vivo was studied by an in-house zebrafish scale model followed by osteoblast differentiation markers expression profiling and Ca:P level measurement by ICP-MS.

    Abstract

    Co-Delivery of Fibrin-Laminin Hydrogel with Mesenchymal Stem Cell Spheroids Supports Skeletal Muscle Regeneration Following Trauma

    MSC aggregation into spheroids was optimized in vitro based on cellular viability, spheroid size, and trophic factor secretion. The regenerative potential of the optimized MSC spheroid therapy was then investigated in a murine model of volumetric muscle loss injury.

    Abstract

    Osteogenic and Angiogenic Profiles of the Palatal Process of the Maxilla and the Palatal Process of the Palatine Bone

    The authors found that the period in which avascular mesenchymal condensation became a vascularized bone structure corresponds to embryonic day 14.5 to embyronic day 16.5 in the hard palate.

    Abstract

    Pharmacological Effects of Ex Vivo Mesenchymal Stem Cell Immunotherapy in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury and Underlying Systemic Inflammation

    A Phase Ib study was conducted to evaluate the safety and immunoregulatory mechanism of action of MSCs using a novel ex vivo product to preserve cell activity in patients with severe acute kidney injury.

    Altered Effect of Killer Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor–Ligand Mismatch by Graft versus Host Disease Prophylaxis in Cord Blood Transplantation

    The difference in the effect of killer immunoglobulin-like receptor–ligand mismatch (KIR)–ligand mismatch was retrospectively assessed between patients who received cord blood transplantation for acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myeloid leukemia, as well as GVHD prophylaxis comprising tacrolimus plus methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil.

    Abstract

    Combination of Antioxidant Enzyme Overexpression and N‐Acetylcysteine Treatment Enhances the Survival of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Ischemic Limb in Mice with Type 2 Diabetes

    Critical limb ischemia in type 2 diabetes mouse model was used to explore the impact of diabetic limb ischemia on the survival of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells.

    Abstract

    Assessment of the Structural and Functional Characteristics of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Associated with a Prolonged Exposure of Morphine

    To determine how a prolonged treatment could impair their functional characteristics, scientists exposed human MSCs to increasing morphine concentrations respectively for nine and eighteen days, evaluating in particular the fibrogenic potential exerted by the long-term exposition.

    Abstract

    Amniotic Fluid Stem Cell Administration Can Prevent Epithelial Injury from Necrotizing Enterocolitis

    Investigators examined the effects of stem cells derived from amniotic fluid and MSCs on the prevention of intestinal injury during experimental necrotizing enterocolitis.

    Abstract

    Mesenchymal Stem Cells Act as Stimulators of Neurogenesis and Synaptic Function in a Rat Model of Alzheimer’s Disease

    The possible roles of human umbilical MSCs and adipose mesenchymal stem cells in neurogenesis and synaptic function were investigated using a β-amyloid 1-42-induced Alzheimer’s disease rat model.
