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...

Pathogenicity of an emergent, ovine abortifacient Campylobacter jejuni clone orally inoculated into pregnant guinea pigs.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To compare pathogenicity of an emergent abortifacient Campylobacter jejuni (IA 3902) with that of reference strains after oral inoculation in pregnant guinea pigs. ANIMALS: 58 pregnant guinea pigs. PROCEDURES: 12 animals were challenged ... Read more...
