Abstracts Background Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a complex and severe neurological condition. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) their secreted factors show promising potential for regenerative medicine. Many studies have investigated MSC expansion efficacy of all kinds culture medium formulations, such as growth factor-supplemented or xeno-free medium. However, very few focused on the human (hMSC) formulations injured spinal repair. In this study, we effect hMSC-conditioned supplemented with...
Ischemic stroke leads to cerebral ionic imbalance, increases acidosis, oxidative stress and release of glutamate inflammatory mediators. Removing solute or stimulants from the ischemic core may block cell-damaging events confer neuroprotection. In this study, we developed a minimally invasive therapeutic microdialysis (tMD) method, choosing include serum albumin in buffer because it is multifunctional protein with osmotic properties. Aiming at core, continuous perfusion supplemented agents...
The purpose of this report was to develop biodegradable balloon-expandable self-locking poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) stents for the treatment retinal detachment. To create stents, polycaprolactone components were first fabricated by a laboratory-scale microinjection molding machine. then assembled into mesh-like 6 and 8 mm in diameter. A special geometry designed self-lock after being expanded balloons. Characterization PCL carried out. exhibited comparable mechanical properties with that...
Several lines of evidence show that a conditioned medium bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCcm) improve functional recovery after ischemic stroke but do not reduce lesions. It is important to develop treatment strategy can exhibit synergistic effect with BM-MSCcm against stroke. In this study, the and/or minocycline was examined in culture and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) animal model. neuron-glial cultures, combined treatment, minocycline, effectively increased neuronal...
The relationship between intuition and ethical decision-making has been researched extensively during the past two decades. This study aimed at exploring empirically observable associations moral intensity of processes. A scenario-based quantitative approach was used to collect data from 157 practising professional spirit mediums. It found that only collective universal had a significant positive association with Personal experience archetype were not significantly associated intensity. may...
