A comprehensive review of the fossil record of the Carpathian Basin. Fossils of the Carpathian Region describes and illustrates the region’s fossils, recounts their history, and tells the stories of key people involved in paleontological research in the area. In addition to covering all the important fossils of this region, special attention is given to rare finds and complete skeletons. The region’s fossils range from tiny foraminifera to the Transylvanian dinosaurs and mammals of the Carpathian Basin. The book also gives nonspecialists the opportunity to gain a basic understanding of paleontology. Sidebars present brief biographies of important figures and explain how to collect, prepa...
Human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can be harvested from many tissues, including bone marrow (BM), cord blood (CB), adipose tissue, umbilical cord (UC), placenta and others. In recent years, there has been an overwhelming interest in MSC as reflected in the number of reports regarding their characterization, biological properties and clinical application. One of the specific areas of research involves the characterization of MSCs derived from different sources as well as the potential differences between them. More recently, reports have been published on derivatives from MSCs such as extracellular vesicles (EVs)/exosomes and mitochondria, but their characterization, mechanisms of action in immunomodulatory functions and regeneration aspects have not been fully elucidated.

Islet transplantation can effectively control the blood glucose of fragile type 1 diabetes patients, thus significantly reducing hyperglycemia and improving HbA1c, and has become one of the ideal options for the treatment of type 1 diabetes patients. However, despite great progress, current islet transplantation is still limited by the isolation process, the culture period, and the rapid decline in islet functional activity after transplantation. Long-term survival and function of islet grafts are affected by non-immune and immune-related factors. To overcome these obstacles, various strategies, including stem cell combination transplantation, have been used for islet transplantation. Stem c...
Im 16. Jahrhundert war – mangels heimischer Hochschuleinrichtungen – Wittenberg die wichtigste Universität der Protestanten Ungarns. Bis zum Ende des Jahrhunderts weilten hier etwa 1200 Studenten, 430 von ihnen waren direkte Schüler Melanchthons zwischen 1522 und 1560. Der Coetus entstand am 24. Juni 1555, in einer Periode, in der sich die Wittenberger Universität in ihrer aufblühenden Epoche befand. Melanchthon wird eine bestimmende Rolle bei der Entstehung des Coetus gespielt haben. Er war es, der bis ans Lebensende auch bei den zweiwöchentlichen regelmäßigen Disputationen der Gemeinschaft den Vorsitz führte. Bei Betrachtung der Namensliste ist gut zu erkennen, dass in den ersten zehn Jahren Melanchthon der gemeinsame Nenner war, und obwohl die Mehrheit der Mitglieder im Verlauf der Jahre zunehmend mehr aus Anhängern der Schweizer Reformation bestand.
