A successful pregnancy with severe male and female factor infertility treated with laser-assisted thinning by Subhendu Pandit, Prashant Sharma, Hrishikesh Magdum, Rachna Gulati, Manish Singh Ahuja

“…Assisted hatching using lasers is said to have provided additional support for hatching and implantation in fresh and frozen in vitro fertilisation and intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfers cycles. Here, we report one such case where a couple reported with inability to conceive for 8 years after marriage and successfully managed with assisted reproductive techniques (laser thinning) for both male and female factor infertility.…”

Effect of Exogenous of Transforming Growth Factor-β1 on Pregnancy Outcome in Mice with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss by Persistent Enhancement of Placental Tissue Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxyg... by Xinghui Wen, Xiaojuan Chen, Mei Li, Jinnian Zhou, Shouli Dao, Shixiang Li, Hui Cheng, Shuyun Zhao, Guanyou Huang

“…The mice were sacrificed at 13.5 days of pregnancy and the embryo resorptionrate was determined. The expression of IDO, TGF-β1, and TGF-β3 were detected in the placenta using westernblotting and immunohistochemistry techniques.Results: The expression of IDO was positively correlated with TGF-β1 in the placental tissue of RPL mice (r=0.591,P<0.001). …”

Biomedical Application of Dental Tissue-Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells by Jung-Hwan Lee, Seog-Jin Seo

“…The academic researches and clinical applications in recent years found interest in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs-) based regenerative medicine due to their pluripotency able to differentiate into any cell types in the body without using embryo. However, it is limited in generating iPSCs from adult somatic cells and use of these cells due to the low stem cell potency and donor site morbidity. …”
