Dracopoulous Professorship in Ophthalmology Co-Director of the Genetic Eye Diseases (GEDi) Center and principal investigator at the Center for Stem Cells and Ocular Regenerative Medicine (STORM) Mark S. Humayun, MD, PhD University Professor of Ophthalmology, Keck School of Medicine of USC in Lo...
Here, we designed a stem cell-containing patch (stem cell "Janus" patch; SCJP) to acclimatize stem cells in the osteogenic and odontogenic microenvironment for periodontal regeneration. The SCJP promoted periodontal regeneration within its functional layer, while its barrier layer blocked gingival ...
GHK has been recommended as a treatment for metastatic cancer, Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease, inflammation, acute lung injury, activating stem cells, pain, and anxiety. Here, we present GHK’s effects on gene expression relevant to the nervous system health and function. READ FULL PUBLICATION...
I don't know if this is for you but...Just imagine being able to re-activate all the stem cells in your body. How would you feel if all of your aches and pains were a thing of the past and your body was able to turn back the clock and repair rejuvenate rebuild anything that’s...
We work on both mouse models and human-induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) derived neurons, together with microglia, 3D brain organoids, and chimeric mouse brain with human cells. We use multidisciplinary approaches includ...
To achieve this goal, a bioengineered cardiac patch (the MSC patch) composed of a sliced porous biological scaffold inserted with multilayered mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was developed for myocardial repair in a syngeneic rat model. After culture, sliced layers of the scaffold were stuck ...
Ellen Mason, seniorcardiac(心脏的)nurse at the British Heart Foundation (BHF), told BBC News: "In the last decade there has been significant research into injecting cells, including stem cells, into the heart to try and repair the damaged area. ...
“Delivering nutrients to the cells is critical, both for culturing the patch and to sustain it after implantation,” Pins said. “So, we have engineered a system to flow blood through the patch, and we also may explore using the decellularized spinach leaves that Glen...
The patches are created from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells), reprogrammed from donor cells taken from blood. These cells are developed into heart muscle and connective tissue cells, which have the characteristics of the myocardium tissue of a four- to eight-year-old child,as reported...
The gel layer may include cells such as, for example, stem cells; the intermediate layer may be biodegradable porous mesh and the reinforcement layer may be polytetrafluoroethylene. Included are methods for making patches according to the invention and for tissue engineering using patches of the ...
