TL;DR: A novel protocol for inducing the differentiation of rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) toward neurotrophic factor (NTF)‐secreting cells as a possible neuroprotective agent is proposed and shows that these cells migrated toward a QA lesion and therefore survived for 19 days post‐transplantation.

TL;DR: It was found that accurate structural information, and diffraction patterns are observed when Delta is large enough so that the spins reach the cylinders' boundaries, and large delta results in extraction of a compartment size, which is smaller than the real one.

TL;DR: This work shows that the bipolar-double-pulsed-field-gradient (bp-d-PFG) methodology yields diffusion-diffraction patterns from which pore size can be directly obtained, and shows that pore shape, which cannot be obtained by conventional methods, can be direct inferred from the modulation of the signal in angular bp-d.PFG experiments.

TL;DR: The complexes of 12-crown-4 (12C4), cyclen (12N4), and 1,4,7,10-tetrathiacyclodododecane (12S4) with gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD) were studied by NMR diffusion measurements in the absence and in the presence of inorganic and organic salts, suggesting that the hydrophobic interaction is not the main driving force for complexation in these systems.

TL;DR: NAA signal attenuation both in vivo and in vitro is not mono‐exponential and could be fitted by bi-exponential fitting function and both the fast and the slow diffusing components of NAA show a considerable restriction by what seems to be a non‐permeable barrier.
