Human corneal epithelial cells play a vital role in maintaining the health and function of the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye. This layer of cells acts as a protective barrier against environmental insults, pathogens, and mechanical injury. Given their crucial functions, understanding these cells is essential for advancements in ophthalmology and regenerative medicine. The corneal ...
GMP growth factors and cytokines designed for therapeutic manufacturing are an essential component of defined media. To date, the cell therapy industry has accepted GMP terms for this reagent class, despite the fact that there is no direct oversight by regulators. These proteins are intended for use in further manufacturing processes and do not come into direct contact with patients. In fact, ...
Low Endotoxin Cytokines Matters Organoid culture, CAR-T cell therapy, stem cell therapy, and other topics have become broadly discussed among biomedical researchers. In fact, it is not difficult to see that these advanced technologies are all related to cell culture. In order to maintain efficient growth, proliferation, and differentiation during in vitro cell culture, many cell cultures require ...

Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have found that interferon gamma receptor (IFNgR) signaling is essential for the susceptibility of CAR-T cell immunotherapy to kill malignant gliomas. The same phenomenon has been observed in other solid tumors. The findings may partially explain why liquid and solid tumors respond very differently to CAR-T cell therapy. Chimeric antigen ...
We absolutely love hearing stem cell success stories from pet owners. But some stories are extra touching because it’s clear that VetStem really improved a pet’s quality of life. That’s the case with Molly, a senior chocolate lab who was suffering from severe osteoarthritis and a potential spinal ...
In a pioneering “off-the-shelf ” drug treatment in place of a surgical procedure, Maruti Hospital on Tuesday inaugurated its Regenerative Medicine Department by administering stem cell therapy for a diabetic patient who lost four toes on both feet. Developed by pharma major, Cipla, in collaboration with Bengaluru-based, Stempeutics Research, over 14 years, it is available (on order) ...
After a lightning round of proposals and reviews, an international team of scientists led by Dr. Camillo Ricordi was granted immediate FDA authorization for a 24-patient clinical trial to test the safety and exploratory efficacy of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) to block the life-threatening lung inflammation that accompanies severe cases of COVID-19. The therapy uses ...
The conversation around diabetes reversal has increased, and when researching diabetes there are numerous states to this claim, but how realistic is it? Sadly, diabetes affects a huge number of people worldwide and is responsible for blindness, kidney disease, limb amputation and death. WHO estimates that diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in 2016[1] and 422 million adults currently ...
Background Stem cells are naturally occurring cells in the body that have the ability to divide and produce a range of different cell types. They are important in the growth and development of the body as well as repair after injury. The past few years have brought a dramatic increase in the body of knowledge concerning stem cells, and their research and investment into uses in medicines1. ...
Abstract Stem cell therapies are becoming more important in the pharmaceutical industry. The genetic manipulations of the cells involved create a powerful tool to treat serious diseases, such as cancer. In 2017, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made several advancements towards regulation of stem cell therapy: Published perspective on stem cell therapy in the New England Journal of ...
Introduction The classical field of neuroscience entails biological or psychological investigation of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and the systemic network of sensory nerve cells called neurons.1 Traditionally, this field comprised of purely biological studies but has since flourished into an interdisciplinary sphere addressing the developmental, physiological, ...
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 11, 2015) - Aelan Cell Technologies announced today the addition of Meenakshi Gaur, Ph.D. to their stem cell clinical program. Dr. Gaur will serve as the Director of Research and Development of the Stem Cell Program, leading a research team that will develop technology aimed at rejuvenation of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. "Dr. Gaur ...
Quantum Dots (QDs) are nano–particles carrying high stability fluorescence to follow the grafted cells which can be used in investigating the movement of cells and understanding the organogenesis of stem cells during development and wound repair processes in adulthood. For its easy acquirement and bypassing moral ethical issues, it makes the human adipose derived stem cells an attractive, ...
There has been a major shift in burden of disease in developing countries. Although traditionally associated with industrialised nations, epidemic levels of non-communicable diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer, now threaten the developing world and are straining health systems that are still struggling with persisting levels of infectious disease. Developing countries ...
