Induction of hepatocyte‐like cells from human umbilical cord‐derived mesenchymal stem cells by defined microRNAs
Generating functional hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is of great urgency for bio-artificial liver support system (BALSS). Previously, we obtained HLCs from human umbilical cord-derived MSCs by overexpressing seven microRNAs (HLC-7) and characterized their liver functions in vitro and in vivo. Here, we aimed to screen out the optimal miRNA candidates for hepatic ...
متن کاملDifferentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells derived from umbilical cord Wharton's jelly into hepatocyte-like cells.
BACKGROUND AIMS Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) isolated from bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue and umbilical cord blood can be induced to differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells. MSC can also be isolated from umbilical cord Wharton's jelly (UC MSC), which can be easily obtained. UC MSC are more primitive MSC than those isolated from other tissue sources and do not express the major histocompat...
متن کاملHuman umbilical cord blood-derived cells differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells in the Fas-mediated liver injury model.
Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) contains stem/progenitor cells, which can differentiate into a variety of cell types. In this study, we investigated whether HUCB cells differentiate into hepatocytes in vitro and in vivo. We also examined whether CD34 could be the selection marker of stem cells for hepatocytes. HUCB cells were obtained from normal full-term deliveries, and CD34(+/-) cells were...
متن کاملReceptor expression and functional status of cultured human eosinophils derived from umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells.
Selective use of recombinant human cytokines has enabled the culture of large numbers of eosinophils from human cord blood mononuclear cells, raising the possibility of their use as a model of eosinophil function. Cultured eosinophils (CE) were compared with normal-density peripheral blood eosinophils (PBE) in terms of their membrane receptor expression and function. Fc gamma R and CR1 expressi...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Umbilical Cord Lining Membrane-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Endothelial-Like Cells
Background: Stem cell therapy for the treatment of vascular-related diseases through functional revascularization is one of the most important research areas in tissue engineering. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro differentiation of umbilical CL-MSC into endothelial lineage cells. Methods: In this study, isolated cells were characterized for expression of MSC-specific marke...
