Evaluation of the potential of human mesenchymal stem cell engrafted after in utero transplantation in murine model
Mesenchymal stem cells derived from human placenta (hPMSc) is an important alternative source of adult stem cells. These cells with multilinear capacity represent a biological material important for regenerative medicine. In this study, we established a mouse model for in utero transplantation of hPMCs to investigate if these cells would affect long-term, organ-specific engraftment. Murine model...

Effect of aqueous ozone solution on pancreatic cells
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ozone solutions on the viability of pancreatic cells. The ozone was generated by an electrical discharge on high-purity oxygen molecules. Ozonation of the water was performed by bubbling ozone through sterile distilled water (O3 concentration 4 g/1000 L) and saline solution (O3 concentration 5 g/1000 L). After initial dilution of test solutions, serial dilutions were...

A new species of the genus Hilethera Uvarov (Oedipodinae: Acrididae: Orthoptera) from Pakistan
The subfamily Oedipodinae has considerable economic importance in Pakistan. It poses constant threat to pastures, orchards and variety of crops in both irrigated and rain-fed areas. Amongst its members, the genus Hilethera has not been studied extensively and it was described by Uvarov in 1925. It comprised two species: Hilethera hierichonica Uvarov and Hilethera aeolopoides Uvarov, but at...
