the potential of menstrual blood-derived stem cells in differentiation to epidermal lineage: a preliminary report
Authors
abstract
background menstrual blood-derived stem cells (menscs) are a novel source of stem cells that can be easily isolated non-invasively from female volunteered donor without ethical consideration. these mesenchymal-like stem cells have high rate of proliferation and possess multi lineage differentiation potency. this study was undertaken to isolate the menscs and assess their potential in differentiation into epidermal lineage. methods about 5-10 ml of menstrual blood (mb) was collected using sterile diva cups inserted into vagina during menstruation from volunteered healthy fertile women aged between 22-30 years. mb was transferred into falcon tubes containing phosphate buffered saline (pbs) without ca2+ or mg2+ supplemented with 2.5 µg/ml fungizone, 100 µg/ml streptomycin, 100 u/ml penicillin and 0.5 mm edta. mononuclear cells were separated using ficoll-hypaque density gradient centrifugation and washed out in pbs. the cell pellet was suspended in dmem-f12 medium supplemented with 10% fbs and cultured in tissue culture plates. the isolated cells were co-cultured with keratinocytes derived from the foreskin of healthy newborn male aged 2-10 months who was a candidate for circumcision for differentiation into epidermal lineage. results the isolated menscs were adhered to the plate and exhibited spindle-shaped morphology. flow cytometric analysis revealed the expression of mesenchymal markers of cd10, cd29, cd73, and cd105 and lack of hematopoietic stem cells markers. an early success in derivation of epidermal lineage from menscs was visible. conclusion the menscs are a real source to design differentiation to epidermal cells that can be used non-invasively in various dermatological lesions and diseases.

Objective(s): Mesenchyme is a type of undifferentiated loose connective tissue that is derived mostly from mesoderm. Recently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as adult stem cells (ASCs) able to divide into a variety of different cells, are of utmost importance for stem cell research. In this research, ability of the liver extract to induce differentiation of rat derived omentum tissue mesenchyma...

The extract of pluripotent stem cells induces dedifferentiation of somatic cells with restricted plasticity. In this study, we used the extract of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) to dedifferentiate adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and examined the impact of this reprogramming event on dopaminergic differentiation of the cells. For this purpose, cytoplasmic extract of ESCs was prepare...
