Forty male albino Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n = 10 in each). Group I (the control group) received 1% dimethyl sulfoxide, group II (the Cur-group) received Cur (100 mg/kg/day), group III (the ACMP-group) received acetamiprid (40 mg/kg/day), and group IV the (ACMP + Cur)-group received ACMP (40 mg/kg/day) plus Cur (100 mg/kg/day) for 30 days. Tissue samples from the liver and kidney were collected and prepared for biochemical, histological, and immunohistochemical analysis. Our results showed a significant increase in total oxidative stress levels and a significant decrease in the total antioxidant capacity in the liver and kidney tissue of the ACMP-group compared with those of the control group (<i>p</i> < 0.05 for all parameters). Also, the ACMP-group showed a disturbance in the structure of the liver and kidneys of rats compared to that of the control group. However, the (ACMP + Cur)-group showed significantly lower total oxidative stress levels and significantly higher levels of total antioxidant capacity than the ACMP-group, with histological similarity to the control group. Total oxidative stress and total antioxidant capacity could clarify the ACMP-induced hepatic and renal toxicity mechanisms that have been attenuated by Cur co-administration. These findings proposed that the co-administration of Cur with ACMP attenuated its toxicity by reducing oxidative stress and improving antioxidant capacity, indicating the role of Cur as an antioxidant in mitigating ACMP-toxicity.</p>","PeriodicalId":9705,"journal":{"name":"Cell and Tissue Biology","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138574622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We applied a sequential culturing system 2D1w/3D2w protocol for differentiating human mesenvhymal stem cell derived from adipose tissue (hMSC-AT) into epithelial-like stem cells (ELSC). hMSC-AT were cultured, characterized by immunophenotyping, mesenchymal differentiation and induced in a 2D culture using epithelial differentiation medium containing ATRA, ITS, dexamethasone, EGF and FGF-2 for 7 days (2D1w), followed by seeding in a 3D culture using chitosan hydrogel combined with the same cocktail (3D2w) for 2 weeks. The immunostaining of the cells was done at different stages of induction in order to characterize the differentiated cells using pan cytokeratin and anti-cytokeratins 14 and 18 antibodies. The expression of cytokeratins 5, 10, 14, 18 and 19 was evaluated by RT-PCR. The toxicity of chitosan hydrogel and proliferation of ELSC in 3D chitosan hydrogel were evaluated by MTT test. The viability of ELSC in 3D culture was evaluated by acridine orange/propidium iodide staining. The hMSC-AT were immunopositive to CD90, CD105, CD73, CD45 and CD34. The ELSC in the 2D culture expressed cytokeratin 19 after 7 days, while the other cytokeratins were not expressed. At the second week (3D culture), all of the above markers were expressed except cytokerstin10, moreover, the viability and proliferation were 98.02 ± 1.34 and 5.45 ± 0.36%, respectively. The cytotoxicity assay demonstrates the biocompatibility of chitosan hydrogel. The study reveals that hMSC-AT, seeded on chitosan hydrogel, can be induced into ELSC in the presence of other inducers.</p>","PeriodicalId":9705,"journal":{"name":"Cell and Tissue Biology","volume":"88 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138574691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A clinical study of 69 patients (23–54 years old) with myomas was conducted. According to the anamnesis, 57.9% of patients had given birth, 46.4% of women had had an artificial interruption of pregnancy, and 15.9% of women had had endometriosis. In histological examination, in 48.14% of cases, the nodes corresponded to the phenotype of simple fibroids with a large proportion of fibrous tissue, while 51.6% corresponded to the phenotype of proliferating fibroids. The comparison group is represented by a random population sample of women from Western Siberia.

The genotype frequencies of the analyzed genes did not significantly differ between the groups. The complex genotype <i>MMP2-1306CC:MMP3-11715A6A:MMP9-1562CT</i> was decreased in women with myoma relative to the persons of the comparison group. In endometriosis patients, the <i>MMP9-1562CC</i> genotype was reduced and heterozygosity was increased relative to patients without endometriosis. The frequency of the <i>MMP2-1306CC:MMP9-1562CT</i> complex genotype is significantly higher in women who gave birth than in women who did not give birth.

This work is aimed at studying the effect of long-term storage (7 years) in the frozen state of human endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSCs) on the stability of their genome in vitro. The results showed destabilization of the karyotype structure in the descendants of cells after their thawing, namely, aneupolyploidization of the chromosome set; increased fragility of chromosomes, resulting in a huge pool of aberrant chromosomes; and impaired condensation in homologues. Chromosomal breakdowns affecting the centromeric regions were in some cases accompanied by the preservation of genetic material in the form of independent chromosomes. Almost all chromosomes of the set were involved in the process of destabilization of the eMSC cell genome. It has been shown that the procedure of long-term cryopreservation can become an inducer of premature cellular aging of eMSCs after their thawing. Comparison of the data obtained with the results of karyotyping of transformed Chinese hamster cells that underwent a similar procedure led to the conclusion that cryopreservation for biological systems can be a stress that induces heterogeneous genetic defects at the karyotype level.
