The protective effects of conditioned media from human mesenchymal stem cells against Methylglyoxal-mediated injury of cultured endothelial cells by Maram Hasan (6672440)

“…Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess specific properties including the inhibition of apoptosis, oxidative stress, and secretion of trophic factors. These unique properties prompted us to investigate the effect of MSCs conditioned medium (MSCs-CM) on preventing the noxious effects of methylglyoxal (MGO), a precursor of advanced glycated end-products (AGEs) that play a key role in the pathophysiology of diabetes, on endothelial cells with respect to oxidative stress and cell survival. …”
