Regenerative Potential of Endometrial Stem Cells: A Mini Review

Authors

  • Farnaz Ghobadi
  • Golnoush Mehrabani
Abstract:

Recent findings in stem cell biology have opened a new window in regenerative medicine. The endometrium possesses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) called endometrial stem cells (EnSCs) having specific regenerative properties linked to adult stem cells. They contribute in tissue remodeling and engineering and were shown to have immuno-modulating effects. Many clinical trials were undertaken to ascertain the therapeutic potential of EnSCS. In this mini review, we showed that EnSCs are readily available sources of adult stem cells in the uterus that can be highlighted for their renewable multipotent and differentiation properties. This cell population may be a practical solution of choice in reproductive biology, regenerative medicine and autologous stem cell therapy.

Endometrial stem cells in regenerative medicine

First described in 2004, endometrial stem cells (EnSCs) are adult stem cells isolated from the endometrial tissue. EnSCs comprise of a population of epithelial stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and side population stem cells. When secreted in the menstrual blood, they are termed menstrual stem cells or endometrial regenerative cells. Mounting evidence suggests that EnSCs can be utilized in re...

Special Issue: Mesenchymal Stem Cells Mini Review Regenerative medicine for bone diseases using mesenchymal stem cells

Since the monumental publication in 1998 by Pittenger et al., mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been a center player of regenerative medicine and now a number of clinical trials using MSCs have been conducted in various fields of tissue regeneration including those of bone. It cannot be denied that due to enthusiastic clinical demanding, clinical application of MSCs has launched with little kn...

Stem Cells in Regenerative Endodontics

Background Currently, clinical endodontics includes procedures that are based on the ability of stem cells to accomplish repair (eg, direct pulp capping, apexogenesis, apexification, and even pulpal regeneration). An attempt is made to critically assess the current status in pulp regeneration therapy. Methods: Systematically, 2 distinctly different strategies exist involving stem cells for t...
