Isolation And Osteogenic Differentiation Of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Alaa M. Abd El-Gayed, Asmaa Z.A. Turky, Mona M. Hassouna, Rasha I. Noreldin, Rawhia H. El-Edel
Menoufia Medical Journal
Objective To investigate the isolation and in-vitro differentiation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into osteocytes. Background Umbilical cord is an important source of multiple cell types such as MSCs that possess the ability of self-renewal and differentiation into several cell types including osteocytes. Bone healing is a complex process that can eventually lead to the formation of malunions, delayed unions, and osteomyelitis. Cellular therapy and bone tissue engineering are becoming a useful addition to medical therapies for bone repairing and restoring function which is a potential tool for the treatment of multiple bone diseases. Patients and methods The …

Menoufia Medical Journal
Objective The aim of this study was to assess the ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to differentiate into chondrocytes in vitro. Background MSCs with their ability of self-renewal and multilineage differentiation can differentiate into several types of cells including chondrocytes. It is reported that adult cartilage lacks the ability to repair itself, making articular cartilage a very attractive target for regenerative medicine therapy. Materials and methods This study was conducted at Clinical Pathology, Gynecology and Obstetrics Departments, Menoufia University Hospital, from December 2016 to May 2018, and included a collection of 30 umbilical cord samples under complete aseptic …

Mark R. Ackermann
A commercially acquired anti-human macrophage antibody (anti-CD68; EBM11) was used in an immunocytochemical technique to detect macrophages in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from cattle, pigs, humans, rats, turkeys, dogs, and cats. In healthy cattle, the antibody labeled alveolar macrophages, pulmonary intravascular cells (presumably intravascular macrophages), and macrophage-like cells in other tissues. In bovine lungs infected with Pasteurella haemolytica, EBM11 antibody labeled 95% of alveolar macrophages and macrophages within alveolar septa but only 0–2% of streaming or “oat” leukocytes. Alveolar macrophages were also stained by EBM11 in pigs but not in rats, turkeys, dogs, and cats. The antibody also stained macrophage aggregates …

The insulin-regulated glucose transporter GLUT4 was immunolocalized in rat cardiac muscle under conditions of basal and stimulated glucose uptake, achieved by fasting and a combined exercise/insulin stimulus, respectively. In basal myocytes there was very little (less than 1%) GLUT4 in the different domains of the plasma membrane (sarcolemma, intercalated disk, and transverse tubular system). GLUT4 was localized in small tubulo-vesicular elements that occur predominantly near the sarcolemma and the transverse tubular system and in the trans-Golgi region. Upon stimulation approximately 42% of GLUT4 was found in the plasma membrane. Each domain of the plasma membrane contributed equally to this effect. …
