Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in multiple sclerosis [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are pluripotent non-hematopoietic precursor cells that can be isolated from bone marrow and numerous other tissues, culture-expanded to purity, and induced to differentiate in vitro and in vivo into mesodermal derivatives. MSCs exhibit many phenotypic and functional similarities to pericytes.

Co-transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells improves spermatogonial stem cell transplantation efficiency in mice [PDF]
Spermatogonial stem cell transplantation (SSCT) could become a fertility restoration tool for childhood cancer survivors. However, since in mice, the colonization efficiency of transplanted spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) is only 12%, the efficiency of the procedure needs to be improved before clinical implementation is possible. Co-transplantation of

Advances in mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for the treatment of osteoporosis [PDF]
AbstractOsteoporosis is a systemic metabolic bone disease with characteristics of bone loss and microstructural degeneration. The personal and societal costs of osteoporosis are increasing year by year as the ageing of population, posing challenges to public health care. Homing disorders, impaired capability of osteogenic differentiation, senescence of

Transplanting Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Treatment of Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Stroke is a major disease that leads to high mortality and morbidity. Given the ageing population and the potential risk factors, the prevalence of stroke and socioeconomic burden associated with stroke are expected to increase. During the past decade, both prophylactic and therapeutic strategies for stroke have made significant progress.

Mesenchymal stem cells attenuate blood-brain barrier leakage after cerebral ischemia in mice
Background Ischemic stroke induced matrixmetallo-proteinase-9 (MMP-9) upregulation, which increased blood-brain barrier permeability. Studies demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell therapy protected blood-brain barrier disruption from several ...

Dose-Independent Therapeutic Benefit of Bone Marrow Stem Cell Transplantation after MI in Mice
Several cell populations derived from bone marrow (BM) have been shown to possess cardiac regenerative potential. Among these are freshly isolated CD133+ hematopoietic as well as culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cells. Alternatively, by purifying CD271+

Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation to promote bone healing [PDF]
AbstractAn overall decline in the availability of osteogenic precursor cells and growth factors in the bone marrow microenvironment have been associated with impaired bone formation and osteopenia in humans. The objective of the current study was to determine if transplantation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) from a healthy, young donor mouse into ...
