Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) from umbilical cord (UC) blood (UCB) and matrix
are tested clinically for a variety of pathologies but in vitro expansion using culture media
containing fetal bovine serum (FBS) is essential to achieve appropriate cell numbers for …

The discovery of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in perinatal sources, such as the amniotic
fluid (AF) and the umbilical connective tissue, the so-called Wharton's jelly (WJ), has
transformed them into promising stem cell grafts for the application in regenerative medicine …

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) represent a modern approach
for management of chronic skin injuries. In this work, we describe BM-MSCs application
versus their conditioned media (CM) when delivered topically admixed with fibrin glue to …

Mesenchymal stem cells are posing as a promising character in the most recent therapeutic
strategies and, since their discovery, extensive knowledge on their features and functions
has been gained. In recent years, innovative sources have been disclosed in alternative to …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal X-linked disorder caused by null mutations
in the dystrophin gene. Although the primary defect is the deficiency of muscle dystrophin,
secondary events, including chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and muscle regeneration failure …

A growing body of epidemiological evidence has supported the association between
maternal exposure to airborne fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) during pregnancy and
adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, the specific biological mechanisms implicated in …

In the oral cavity, the tongue is the anatomic subsite most commonly involved by invasive
squamous cell carcinoma. Current treatment protocols often require significant tissue
resection to achieve adequate negative margins and optimal local tumor control …

The therapeutic effect of three polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) membranes loaded with electrically
conductive materials‐carbon nanotubes (PVA‐CNTs) and polypyrrole (PVA‐PPy)‐were
tested in vivo for neuro‐muscular regeneration after an axonotmesis injury in the rat sciatic …

Cooking oil fumes (COFs) derived PM 2.5 is the major source of indoor air pollution in Asia.
For this, a pregnant rat model within different doses of cooking oil fumes (COFs) derived PM
2.5 was established in pregnancy in our research. Our previous studies have showed that …

Skeletal muscle is essential in voluntary movement and other major vital functions. Muscle
injuries are important in clinical practice and, despite skeletal muscle's good regenerative
ability, severe tissue loss impairs complete myofibre regeneration, limiting structural and …
