Progenitor cells have become a hub for research on a few different fronts. Current research on progenitor cells focuses on two different applications: regenerative medicine and cancer biology.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stromal cells or medicinal signaling cells, are multipotent stromal cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types, including osteoblasts (bone cells), chondrocytes (cartilage cells), myocytes (muscle cells) and adipocytes (fat cells which give rise to marrow adipose tissue).
Spatial relationship between Müller cells and microglia. As glial cells, Müller glia serve a secondary but important role to neurons.As such, they have been shown to serve as important mediators of neurotransmitter (acetylcholine and GABA specifically) degradation and maintenance of a favorable retinal microenvironment in turtles. [7]
Additional early works that were important in elucidating the identity and function of radial glia, were completed by Ramón y Cajal, who first suggested that the radial cells were a type of glia through their similarities to astrocytes; [8] and Wilhelm His, who also proposed the idea that growing axons may use radial cells for orientation and ...
Free-body diagram of a U-channel synchronous linear motor. The view is perpendicular to the channel axis. The two coils at centre are mechanically connected, and are energized in "quadrature" (meaning a phase difference of 90° (π/2 radians) between the flux of the magnets and the flux of the coils).
Pontificia Universidad Católica Madre y Maestra (English: Pontifical Catholic University Madre y Maestra) or PUCMM is a private, coeducational Roman Catholic university in the Dominican Republic. The university grants undergraduate, graduate, doctoral and professional degrees.
