In summary, mesenchymal stem cells seem to play an essential role for treatment of meniscal defects.
In summary, germline stem cells appear to exist in ovaries, and they can be isolated and manipulated in vitro and give rise to offspring upon transplantation.
In summary, pluripotent stem cells including genetically altered EC or ES cell lines were found to be useful models to analyse genotoxic/mutagenic effects of drugs and xenobiotics.
In summary, the stem cells in the subcutaneous WAT niche of obese patients are already committed to adipocyte differentiation and show an upregulated inflammatory gene expression associated to their loss of stemcellness.
The summary of stem cells used for preparation of cell-seeded BAM grafts is presented in Table 3. Zhu et al. evaluated the feasibility of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) seeding into BAM for bladder reconstruction in a rabbit model [ 27].
Summary: Human embryonic stem cell neural derivatives can be used to model the molecular and cellular properties of medulloblastoma.
In summary, C+G improves stem cell collection but there are tradeoffs, particularly with regard to cost.
In the workshop summary, a cancer stem cell was defined as 'A cell within a tumor that possesses the capacity to self-renew and to cause the heterogeneous lineages of cancer cells that comprise the tumor' (Clarke et al. 2006).
In summary, local or systemic stem cells seem to play a fundamental and essential role in the regeneration of meniscus injury, either as direct repair cells or as a source for secretion of bioactive modulators.
In summary, the usage of stem cell treatment might restore axonal continuity, connect the area for axonal regeneration, and promote axonal growth back to its distal targets.
In summary, the multipotential aspects of stem cell-derived exosomes in maintaining stem cell features and regulation of immune programs in recipient tissues could be a future clinical consideration for disease monitoring (Fig. 4).
