Mesenchymal stromal cells: main factor or helper in regenerative medicine?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mesenchymal stromal cells (mSCs) are presently studied for the prophylaxis and therapy of a variety of diseases such as acute graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, cardiac indications, bone degeneration, Crohn's disease, and organ rejection, as well as prevention of acute renal failure in high-risk situations. mSCs appear to function through paracrine mechanisms that exert immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, mitogenic, and other organ-protective and repair-stimulating actions. mSCs are either cultured in the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) or platelet lysate (PL). PL lysate-generated mSCs exhibit faster doubling times, different gene expression profiles, and more potent immunosuppressive activity compared with FSC-generated mSCs. The utility of mSCs in the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases is being evaluated in prospective studies.

Pretreatment of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Stromal-derived Factor-1α Delivery from Chitosan-based Injectable Hydrogels for Better Cell Guidance and Retention
Clinical applications of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) rely on their capacity to home and engraft in the appropriate target tissues for a long time. Homing and engraftment capacity of these stem cells depend on the expression of Chemokines and their receptors. Ex vivo expanded MSCs exhibit homing potential when grafted to injury tissue but their homing efficiency has been observed very poor bec...

There are two main categories for stem cells a cording to their origin: Embryonic Stem Cells and Adult Stem Cell. Mesenchymal stem cell, supporting hematopoetic stem cells in bone marrow, can regenerate tissues such as bone, cartilage, muscle, tendon and fatty tissue. These cells were recognized for the first time by Friedenstein and Petrokova who could isolate theme from rat bone marrow.Mesenc...

Objective(s): Umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UCB-MSCs) are ideally suited for use in various cell-based therapies. We investigated a novel induction protocol (NIP) to improve the neuronal differentiation of human UCB-MSCs under appropriate conditions. Materials and Methods: This experimental study was performed in Iranian Blood Transfusion Organization (IBTO), Tehran, I...

Introduction: Metastasis is the main cause of cancer death; however, the underlying mechanisms of metastasis are largely unknown. The chemokine of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF1) and the process of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), both have been declared as important factors to promote cancer metastasis; however, Conspicuously, the relation between them has not been recognized well...
