Deferoxamine preconditioning enhances the protective effects of stem cells in streptozotocin-induced Alzheimer's disease.
Life sciences ·doi:10.1016/j.lfs.2021.120093

AimsStem cell-based therapy is one of the promising strategies in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the short lifespan and low homing of transplanted cells continue to be a major obstacle in this method. Preconditioning of stem…

Synergistic effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells and selenium nanoparticles on streptozotocin-induced memory impairment in the rat.
Life sciences ·doi:10.1016/j.lfs.2021.119246

AimsMemory impairment is determined to be the most well-known symptom of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although cell therapy seems is an efficient therapeutic strategy to attenuate the AD-related memory impairment, transplanted cells have a sho…

Amelioration of diabetes-induced testicular and sperm damage in rats by cerium oxide nanoparticle treatment.
Andrologia ·doi:10.1111/and.13089

Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) as an antioxidant have been used frequently to attenuate hyperglycaemia oxidative damage in different organs. We investigated the impact CNPs on the qualitative and quantitative sperm parameters, spermatoge…

Sublethal concentration of H2O2 enhances the protective effect of mesenchymal stem cells in rat model of spinal cord injury.
Biotechnology letters ·doi:10.1007/s10529-017-2499-7

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of H2O2 on the migration and antioxidant defense of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and the neurotrophic effects of H2O2-treated MSCs on spinal cord injury (SCI).ResultsSublethal concentrations of H2O2 decre…
