Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) on Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSC)Eric Mullins, Cale Forgues, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. Studies of DPSC differentiation have demonstrated the potential to form many tissue types, including neural, osteogenic and vascular precursors using cytokines and growth factors, such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Eight previously isolated Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2019 · 13,831 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExpression of microRNA miR-27, miR-124 and miR-218 Among Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) IsolatesMark Whiting, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that can act as transcriptional activators and repressors in many types of mesenchymal stem cells. To date, few studies have evaluated the expression or activity of microRNAs among dental pulp stem cells. Using … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2019 · 8,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdipose-Derived Canine Mesenchymal Stem Cells in PLAY® MediaArjun Kulkarni, Bhavana N. V., Teena Mary Thomas et al.In veterinary medicine, stem cell-based therapies present promise for addressing orthopedic and degenerative conditions in canines. Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) possess unique regenerative, immunomodulatory, and differentiation capabilities. However, their efficacy relies on optimal in-vitro conditions. Prolonged expansion over passages leads to a gradual loss of stem cell traits, highlighting the importance of optimized culture conditions and media supplements.

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review on the Genetic Regulation of Myogenesis and Muscle DevelopmentWuyi LiuMyogenesis of muscle tissues is known as a very complex and delicate process including many cellular differentiation and development events in animals. Here, the courses of cellular fate determination and terminal differentiation of muscle cells are systematically elaborated and the genetic regulatory network of muscle genesis is well conceived in animal organic growth and development through literature retrieval. Furthermore, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2019 · 9,614 accessesView PDFCite
