Role of pericytes in the barrier task
… barrier (BRB) is a blood-ocular barrier system, made up of an inner and an outer barrier. BRB is located in the retinal microvasculature and include the microvascular endothelium. The role of the BRB is to control molecule trafficking: ion, protein and water flux, from the blood to the …

The Isolation and Differentiation of Adipose Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
… readily available source of adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), resides within adipose tissue. Previous research has demonstrated that MSCs can differentiate into multiple specialized cell types and may thus be capable of ameliorating symptoms of many age-associated diseases. However, several …

Silver Nanoparticles As Drug Delivery Systems
… need for new antimicrobial biomaterials. Adult stem cell based regenerative therapies have been one of the most widely researched areas of tissue engineering. This is due to the recent success of in vitro differentiation of stem cells and a high demand to replace damaged organs and tissues from …

Impact of the chromatin remodeller SMARCAD1 on murine intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte and white adipose tissue biology.
… intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte and white adipose tissue biology. Chromatin remodelling factors use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to drive the movement of and/or affect molecular changes to the nucleosome. One such factor, SMARCAD1 (SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator …

Chondrogenesis of Stem/Progenitor Cells by Chemotaxis Using Novel Cell Homing Systems
… dental pulp, vascular tissue and bone. Various stem/progenitor cell populations are present in tissues adjacent to an articular cartilage defect including subsets of cells that have the ability to differentiate into cartilage-like tissue. Furthermore, several factors have been elucidated that …

Dynamic supramolecular hydrogels with adaptive biological functionality
… the complex yet dynamic environment surrounding cells, provides cell support and ultimately determines cell fate. Cell behaviour depends on three main ECM properties; (i) its biochemistry presented by the chemical functionality exposed to the cells, (ii) its (nanoscale) topography and (iii) its …

Phenotypic analysis of human stem cells and their differentiation potential towards pancreatic cells
… is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system specifically destroys the insulin-producing β-cells of the pancreas, resulting in a loss of glycemic control. There is no cure for the disease, and patients have the difficult task of managing their blood glucose levels by daily injection of …
