Stem Cell Unit
The Stem Cells Department at the Infertility and Health Reproductive Research Center, located in the Hashemi Building Comprehensive Laboratory operates in the field of reproductive medicine. The use of embryonic stem cells producing spermatozoa and oocyte gametes creates new hope for the treatment of infertile people.
In this lab, scientific projects on various cells associated with fertility and infertility including embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells such as peripheral blood mesenchymal stem cells, bone marrow, menstrual blood, fat, sexually transmitted cells and sertoli cells will be performed. In addition, differentiation capacity of stem cells for the treatment of infertility is also studied.
