KINSHIP OF CONDITIONALLY IMMORTALIZED CELLS DERIVED FROM FETAL BONE TO HUMAN BONE-DERIVED MESENCHYMAL STROMA CELLS

Kinship of conditionally immortalized cells derived from fetal bone to human bone-derived mesenchymal stroma cells

Abstract The human fetal osteoblast cell line (hFOB 1.19) has been proposed as an accessible experimental model for study of osteoblast biology relating to drug development and biomaterial engineering.For their multilineage differentiation potential, hFOB has been compared to human mesenchymal progenitor cells and used to investigate bone-metabolis

Gender Difference, Nutritional Supplements and Drug use in Sport to Enhancing Performance: an Italian Revision over the Last Decade

In last years, there has been a multitude of studies on doping, such as in recreational and in amateur sport.The extent of this phenomenon was clarified for special populations (like e.g.bodybuilders) and for special substances (mostly for anabolic steroids).Doping is present in sportsmen and women; the reasons why may be many and various.The aim o

Association of an intact E2 gene with higher HPV viral load, higher viral oncogene expression, and improved clinical outcome in HPV16 positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

To assess the relationship of E2 gene disruption with viral gene expression and clinical outcome in human papillomavirus (HPV) positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, we evaluated 31 oropharyngeal and 17 non-oropharyngeal HPV16 positive carcinomas using two PCR-based methods to test for disruption of E2, followed by Sanger sequencing.Expres
