Phenotype and chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal cells from adipose tissue of different species.

30 Oct 2009 Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells capable of differentiating into several mesoderm lineages. They have been isolated from different tissues, such as bone marrow, adult peripheral blood, umbilical cord blood, and adipose tissue. The ... Read more...

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion in the ovine model.

3 Oct 2009 Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is the most common surgical operation for cervical radiculopathy and/or myelopathy in patients who have failed conservative treatment. Since the operation was first described by Cloward and Smith and ... Read more...

Investigations into the cause of foot-and-mouth disease virus seropositive small ruminants in Cyprus during 2007.

29 Sep 2009 In 2007, serological evidence for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) infection was found as a result of differential diagnostic testing of Cypriot sheep suspected to be infected with bluetongue or contagious ecthyma. Seropositive sheep and goats were ... Read more...
