This article presents a set of software tools which are used in conjunction with spectrophotometric technology to support the quali-quantitative analys is of pigmented lesions and their classification as either benign or malignant on the basis of their dominant spectral features. The software components interact with their hardware counterparts...

The contribution of the host's circulating progenitor cells after implantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)/bioscaffold combinations for repairing bone defects has not been elucidated, although this issue affects the clinical application of the tissue engineering approach. We implanted blocks of hydroxyapatite loaded with murine MSCs into...

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are precursors of bone, cartilage and fat tissue. MSC can also regulate the immune response. For these properties, they are tested in clinical trials for tissue repair in combination with bioscaffolds or injected as cell suspension for immunosuppressant therapy. Experimental data, however,...

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most prevalent leukemia among adults. Despite its indolent nature, CLL remains an incurable disease. Herein we aimed to monitor CLL disease engraftment and, progression/regression in a xenograft CLL mouse model using ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide-magnetic resonance imaging (USPIO-MRI). Spleen...
