The Journal aims to provide a forum for the discussion of various aspects of the cultural and historical process in the Near Eastern and Mediterranean world, encompassing studies of individual civilizations as well as common elements, contacts and interactions among them (e.g., in such traditional fields as Assyriology, Classics, Egyptology, Hittitology, etc.). The Journal welcomes articles dealing with history, philology, art, archaeology and linguistics which are intended to illuminate the material展开更多

However, the self-repair effects are minimal because of a limited absolute number, as well as the local microenvironment, post-transplantation. A combined treatment utilizing stem cell transplantation and gone therapy can exert a dual effect involving stem cells and neurotrophic factors. The adenovirus carrier is展开更多

Recent studies have reported that the repair mechanisms underlying cord blood stern cells involve the replacement of damaged cells and mediation of the local micro-environment.展开更多

However, the source of Schwann cells is limited and amplification remains difficult. Studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells, an alternative cell type, can be used for transplantation treatment of peripheral nerve defects. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are pluripotent stem cells derived from newborn umbilical cord tissues.展开更多

Microglia cells are phagocytic cells present in the retina. In the retina of glaucoma rat models, microglia cells become activated, which suggests a role for microglia in the pathogenesis of optic nerve injury in glaucoma patients. The retinal ganglion cell is the only cell that can produce action potential in the retina,展开更多
