Phenotypic Characterization And Differentiation Of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Originating From Adipose Tissue, Ece Çerçi̇, Hati̇ce Erdost

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Stem cells are known as undifferentiated cells that are capable of divisions and self-renewal over an extended period. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are known to differentiate into many different organ and tissue cells. The purpose of this study was to characterize adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells in detail based on the expression status of certain surface markers and differentiation stages for clinical and laboratory applications. The migrating phase and mitotic property of the cells from adipose tissue were assessed under a microscope. Cell counting was performed during the first, second, and third passages. The cells were differentiated into …


The Comparing Of Homogenization Methods For Oxidative And Antioxidative Analyses Of Sperm, Ömer Varişli, Numan Akyol Jan 2019

The Comparing Of Homogenization Methods For Oxidative And Antioxidative Analyses Of Sperm, Ömer Varişli, Numan Akyol

Pretreatment of sperm for oxidative and antioxidative analysis has been shown to be different in studies. These differences can affect the result of analyses. The aim of this study was to compare the analyses of sperm homogenization methods. The semen of four rams were used in the study. Pretreatment procedures included the rotary, bead, and ultrasonic homogenization methods. Oxidative and antioxidative status of sperm samples was assessed by measuring serum lipid hydroperoxide, total oxidant status, free sulfhydryl groups (SH total thiol), ceruloplasmin, and total antioxidant capacity levels. As a result, the homogenization methods before oxidative and antioxidative status analyses significantly …
