Abstract (original English)

Background Neurons, distributed throughout the body, regulate various bodily functions. The recovery of the nervous system is often slow and can be irreversible. Currently, the approach of using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in conjunction with conventional treatments for nervous system injuries is being explored. Nanoemulsions are systems designed for the nanoscale delivery of drug cargoes. Foeniculum vulgare (F. vulgare), a medicinal plant long utilized in complementary medicine, is the focus of this study. The aim is to utilize nanoemulsions of fennel to induce the differentiation of MSCs into neural-like cells in vitro. Materials and methods Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) were commercially purchased. These cells were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10 % fetal bovine serum and 1 % penicillin-streptomycin antibiotic. Based on a sequential extraction method, n-hexane (Hex), ethyl acetate (EtAc), and ethanolic extracts were obtained from the seeds of F. vulgare. To prepare the F. vulgare extract nanoemulsion, the aqueous phase (distilled water), the oily part (F. vulgare extract), Span 80 and Tween 20 were used. The optimal dose of F. vulgare nanoemulsion was determined using the MTT assay and acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) staining. Neural differentiation was induced using a specialized differentiation medium on the MSCs, with the prepared n
