By injecting Mesenchymal Stem Cells with ability to express high amount of Akt or protein kinase B in myocardium, researchers witnessed restored cardiac function and inhibition of ventricular remodeling. The effect was seen after two weeks of administration of cells. The culture containing hypoxic Akt-MSCs (conditioned medium) inhibits apoptosis or cell death induced due to hypoxia. Also, it triggers in vitro contraction of cardiomyocytes, the cardiac cells specifically responsible for contraction function.
The desired functional improvement can occur in short time which is less than 72 hours, the reason for which was hypothesized as paracrine action of cells. Hypothesis was proved by upregulation of genes that code for factors responsible for above mentioned effects (apoptosis and contraction). The factors are FGF-2, VEGF, HGF etc.

Mitosis is important for sexual reproduction indirectly. It allows the sexually reproducing organism to grow and develop from a single cell into a sexually mature individual. This allows organisms to continue to reproduce through the generations.
The clinical manifestation which supports this conclusion is that an injury to the brachial plexus which happens during birth. Erb is termed as a paralysis of the arm which is caused by an injury on upper arm's main nerves to be specifically the C5-C6 nerves.
It arrives most commonly on shoulder dystocia when there is a difficult birth. This paralysis can resolve on its own depending on nature of the damage.
Answer:
Plant cells form a cell plate between the two daughter cells. In animal cells, a cleavage furrow is formed between the two daughter cells.
Explanation:
He’s dead. Really dead. Very dead.
