MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES AND MAGNETIC FIELD EXPOSURE ENHANCES CHONDROGENESIS OF HUMAN ADIPOSE DERIVED MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS BUT NOT OF WHARTON JELLY MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS

Magnetic Nanoparticles and Magnetic Field Exposure Enhances Chondrogenesis of Human Adipose Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells But Not of Wharton Jelly Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Purpose: Iron oxide based magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are versatile tools in biology and medicine.Adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC) and Wharton Jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJMSC) are currently tested in different strategies for regenerative regenerative medicine (RM) purposes.Their superiority compared to other mesenchymal stem cell

3D printed training model with sensorized arachnoid for endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery: development and initial validation

Background: Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery is a relatively novel technique with a long learning curve: it is used to resect tumors that grow in the sella, which is located at the center of the skull base, immediately below the optic nerves and brain that are wrapped by the arachnoid, containing the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).One of the challengi

Sialotranscriptomics of Rhipicephalus zambeziensis reveals intricate expression profiles of secretory proteins and suggests tight temporal transcriptional regulation during blood-feeding

Abstract Background Ticks secrete a diverse mixture of secretory proteins into the host to evade its immune response and facilitate blood-feeding, making secretory proteins attractive targets for the production of recombinant anti-tick vaccines.The largely neglected tick species, Rhipicephalus zambeziensis, is an efficient vector of Theileria parva
