Open AccessSurgical implantation of human adipose derived stem cells attenuates experimentally induced hepatic fibrosis in rats
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal cells and could exert hepatoprotective effects against acute liver injury, steatohepatitis, and fibrogenesis. Here, we evaluated the effects of human adipo...

Open AccessAngiogenesis after administration of basic fibroblast growth factor induces proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells in elastic perichondrium in an in vivo model: mini review of three sequential republication-abridged reports
To date, studies on mesenchymal tissue stem cells (MSCs) in the perichondrium have focused on in vitro analysis, and the dynamics of cartilage regeneration from the perichondrium in vivo remain largely unknown...

Open AccessFDG-PET/CT and diffusion-weighted imaging for resected lung cancer: correlation of maximum standardized uptake value and apparent diffusion coefficient value with prognostic factors
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) is useful for detecting malignant tumors and the assessment of lymph nodes, as FDG-PET/CT is. But it is not clear how DWI influences the prognosis of lung ca...

Open AccessPrevention of glucocorticoid-associated osteonecrosis by intravenous administration of mesenchymal stem cells in a rabbit model
Glucocorticoid-associated osteonecrosis is an intractable condition, making the establishment of preventative strategies of particular importance. Recently various studies using mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) ha...

Open AccessRelationship between vascular reactivity and expression of HMGB1 in a rat model of septic aorta
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a ubiquitous nuclear protein, induces several inflammatory diseases and functions as a fatal factor when released extracellularly. The effect of HMGB1 on vascular reactivity ...

Free transportation cost inequalities via random matrix approximation
By means of random matrix approximation procedure, we re-prove Biane and Voiculescu’s free analog of Talagrand’s transportation cost inequality for measures on R in a more general setup. Furthermore, we prove the...
