Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine is a relatively young field. However, in recent
years there has been a tremendous interest in stem cells possibly due to their therapeutic …

Human umbilical cord (UC) has been a tissue of increasing interest in recent years. Many
groups have shown the stem cell potency of stromal cells isolated from the human UC …

… However, they can be viewed by a search in clinical trial databases such as the US National
Institute of Health database (www.clinicaltrials.gov ) and the European Union Clinical Trials …

Cells in the umbilical cord stroma have gained attention in recent years; however, differentiation
to certain lineages in humans has been demonstrated in few studies. Unlike bone …

… sites and can be synchronized by MSCs, whereas variations in chemokine expression can
dictate … Inflammatory cytokines that control chemokine production can provoke MSCs to recruit …

Here we show that ischemia induces sustained contraction of pericytes on microvessels in
the intact mouse brain. Pericytes remain contracted despite successful reopening of the …

Background and Purpose— Use of thrombolysis in stroke is limited by a short therapeutic
window because delayed reperfusion may cause brain hemorrhage and edema. Available …

Zoobenthic investigations carried out along the Turkish Levantine coast resulted in
identification of nine previously unrecorded alien species: Macrorhynchia philippina (Hydrozoa), …

10.7554/eLife.34861.001 Recent evidence suggests that capillary pericytes are contractile
and play a crucial role in the regulation of microcirculation. However, failure to detect …

Background and Purpose— Both necrotic and apoptotic cell death mechanisms are activated
after cerebral ischemia. However, whether they are concomitantly active in the same cell or …
