Abstract Stem cell exhaustion plays a major role in the ageing of different tissues. Similarly, in vitro cell ageing during expansion prior to their use in regenerative medicine can severely compromise stem cell quality through progressive declines in differentiation and growth capacity. We utilized non-destructive multispectral assessment of native cell autofluorescence to investigate the metabolic mechanisms of in vitro mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) ageing in human bone marrow...

Οι πολυεστιακοί φακοί επαφής δεν είναι μόνο για τα γερασμένα μάτια που δεν μπορούν να διαβάσουν καλά. Τα παιδιά που φοράνε τέτοιους φακούς επαφής έχουν σημαντικά πιο αργή εξέλιξη της μυωπίας τους, σύμφωνα με μία νέα αμερικανική κλινική δοκιμή. Τις τελευταίες δεκαετίες, η μυωπία -στην οποία τα μάτια αποκτούν για μυστηριώδεις λόγους επίμηκες σχήμα- εμφανίζει αυξητική τάση διεθνώς. Έως το 2050 εκτιμάται ότι πάνω από τους μισούς ανθρώπους (το 54%) θα έχουν μυωπία, ενώ μεγάλη μυωπία πάνω από πέντε βαθμούς...
