Differentiation of human olfactory bulb-derived neural stem cells toward oligodendrocyte.
(
Wiley
, 2018 , Article)
In the central nervous system (CNS), oligodendrocytes are the glial element in charge of myelin formation. Obtaining an overall presence of oligodendrocyte precursor cells/oligodendrocytes (OPCs/OLs) in culture from different ...
Landscape of NAT2 polymorphisms among breast cancer.
(
Elsevier Masson
, 2016 , Article)
PURPOSE:
The prevalence of phenotypes of Arylamine N-acetyltransferase-2(NAT2) gene (i.e. fast, intermediate and slow acetylators) among ethnic groups, as well as the association studies regarding NAT2 polymorphisms and ...
Common and Rare Genetic Variants Associated With Alzheimer's Disease
(
WILEY PERIODICALS, INC.
, 2016 , Article)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most devastating disorders. Despite the continuing increase of its incidence among aging populations, no effective cure has been developed mainly due to difficulties in early diagnosis ...
Genetically unmatched human iPSC and ESC exhibit equivalent gene expression and neuronal differentiation potential.
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
The potential uniformity between differentiation and therapeutic potential of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) remains debatable. We studied the gene expression profiles, ...
Human olfactory bulb neural stem cells mitigate movement disorders in a rat model of Parkinson's disease.
(
Wiley
, 2015 , Article)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder characterized by the loss of midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Neural stem cells (NSCs) are multipotent stem cells that are capable of differentiating into different ...
Aspirin inhibits cancer stem cells properties and growth of glioblastoma multiforme through Rb1 pathway modulation.
(
Wiley
, 2019 , Article)
Several clinical studies indicated that the daily use of aspirin or acetylsalicylic acid reduces the cancer risk via cyclooxygenases (Cox-1 and Cox-2) inhibition. In addition, aspirin-induced Cox-dependent and -independent ...
PDGFRα depletion attenuates glioblastoma stem cells features by modulation of STAT3, RB1 and multiple oncogenic signals.
(
Impact Journals
, 2016 , Article)
Platelet derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs) play an important role in tumor pathogenesis, and they are frequently overexpressed in glioblastoma (GBM). Earlier we have shown a higher protein expression of PDGFR isoforms ...
Recent Perspective About the Amyloid Cascade Hypothesis and Stem Cell-Based Therapy in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
(
Bentham Science
, 2016 , Book chapter)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative condition that is
clinically characterized by impaired cognitive functions. The major morphologically
observed lesion of AD encompasses the accumulation of extracellular ...
The effect of triiodothyronine on maturation and differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells during remyelination following induced demyelination in male albino rat
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Demyelination was induced by two weeks cuprizone treatment. Rats of +ve control and triiodothyronine (T3) then received three subcutaneous injections of either saline or T3 day after day and sacrificed at the end of the ...
Role of the Gastrointestinal Tract Microbiome in the Pathophysiology of Diabetes Mellitus.
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2017 , Article)
The incidence of diabetes mellitus is rapidly increasing throughout the world. Although the exact cause of the disease is not fully clear, perhaps, genetics, ethnic origin, obesity, age, and lifestyle are considered as few ...
