Circulating mesenchymal stem cells
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2004Mesenchymal precursor cells (MPCs) are multipotent cells capable of differentiating into various mesenchymal tissues, such as bone, cartilage, fat, tendon and muscle. They are present within both mesenchymal tissues and the bone marrow (BM). If marrow-derived MPCs are to have a role in repair and fibrosis of mesenchymal tissues, transit of these cells ...

Mesenchymal stem cell exosomes
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2015MSCs are an extensively used cell type in clinical trials today. The initial rationale for their clinical testing was based on their differentiation potential. However, the lack of correlation between functional improvement and cell engraftment or differentiation at the site of injury has led to the proposal that MSCs exert their effects not through ...

Experimental Gerontology, 2005
Stem cells are located throughout the adult body of higher organisms, supporting a continuous renewal and repair of tissues. Unique abilities of stem cells are self-renewal and multipotential differentiation. It is, therefore, of critical importance for an organism to maintain and control quantity and quality of stem cells within a given pool ...

The Concept of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Regenerative Medicine, 2006In this chapter we examine whether criteria usually defining adult tissue stem cells apply to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that give rise to cells of the skeletal connective tissues. MSCs appear to constitute a heterogeneous population of undifferentiated and committed, lineage-primed cells, capable of: homing upon engraftment to a number of growth ...

Aging of mesenchymal stem cells
Ageing Research Reviews, 2006The role of adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in tissue maintenance and regeneration has received significant attention of late. Questions arise to what extent these cells are either subject to, or causes of aging; whether age-related changes in these cells are due to intrinsic factors or induced by the somatic environment.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Asthma
2019Asthma is one of the worldwide respiratory health problem that affect children and adult. Current treatment strategies such as conventional and allergen immunotherapy still fall behind. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have wide regenerative capacity and immunoregulatory activity with their wide range of secretions and contact dependent manner.

Cryobanking Mesenchymal Stem Cells
2017Cryopreservation and storage of culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is essential for a biobank to maintain a collection of cell lines for research and clinical use. Optimization of cryopreservation protocols and methods to minimize damage to cells during freezing and thawing is critical to ensure reliable availability of viable cells ...

Mesenchymal stem cells in immunoregulation
Immunology & Cell Biology, 2006Mesenchymal stem cells are present within the bone marrow cavity and serve as a reservoir for the continuous renewal of various mesenchymal tissues. Recent studies suggest that mesenchymal stem cells modulate immune reactions in vitro and escape from immune surveillance in vivo.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Cancer
Stem Cell Reviews, 2008It is becoming increasingly evident that stromal cells such as macrophages, mast cells, adipocytes and mesenchymal cells associated with tumors significantly contribute to tumorigenesis. Some types of cancer indeed profoundly rely on extrinsic signals afforded by infiltrating or neighbouring cells for survival, proliferation and dissemination.

Perivascular cells as mesenchymal stem cells
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2010Mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent adult stem cell populations that have broad differentiation plasticity and immunosuppressive potential that render them of great importance in cell-based therapies. They are identified by in vitro characteristics based on their differentiation potential for clinical approaches while their biological properties and
