چکیده

The proliferation of human bone marrow cells was studied in a liquid culture system without colony-stimulating factor. Bone marrow cells suspended in medium containing horse serum and fetal calf serum were incubated in the Teflon culture bag. During the first week there was an increase in the number of blast cells and early cells of the granulocytic series, both of which showed a high 3H-thymidine labeling index. The total number of mononuclear phagocytes increased during the first two weeks of culture. A number of characteristics of the cultured cells (alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, N-acetyl-DL-alanyl alpha-naphthyl esterase, Fc receptors, and phagocytosis) were determined. It was not feasible to recognize promonocytes and monoblasts with light microscopy, but with electron microscopy and the use of peroxidatic activity as marker, monoblasts and promonocytes were identified. The monoblast is a round cell with a few surface microextensions, a large nucleus, and few cytoplasmic granules. The nuclear envelope, the rough endoplasmic reticulum, and the granules show peroxidatic activity.

Matrigel Enhances in vitro Bone Differentiation of Human Marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Objective(s) The use of co-culture cells as well as extra cellular matrix are among those strategies that have been employed to direct mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) bone differentiation in culture. In this regard, there is no study considering the effects of Matrigel on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) in vitro bone differentiation. This was the subject of the present study. Materials and Methods ...

Growth suppression effect of human mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow, adipose tissue, and Wharton's jelly of umbilical cord on PBMCs

Objective(s):Immunosuppressive property of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has great attraction in regenerative medicine especially when dealing with tissue damage involving immune reactions. The most attractive tissue sources of human MSCs used in clinical applications are bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue (AT), and Wharton's jelly (WJ) of human umbilical cord. The current study has compared immu...

EXPANSION OF HUMAN CORD BLOOD PRIMITIVE PROGENITORS IN SERUM-FREE MEDIA USING HUMAN BONE MARROW MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS

Ex vivo expansion of human umbilical cord blood cells (HUCBC) is explored by several investigators to enhance the repopulating potential of HUCBC. The proliferation and expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in ex vivo culture was examined with the goal of generating a suitable clinical protocol for expanding HSC for patient transplantation. Using primary human mesenchymal stem ...
