Expanded autologous adipose derived stem cell transplantation for type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is the most common form of diabetes mellitus, accounting for 90% of diabetes mellitus in patients. At the present time, althoughT2D can be treated by various drugs and therapies using insulin replacement, reports have shown that complications including microvascular, macrovascular complications and therapy resistance can occur in patients…

Xenotransplantation of human umbilical cord derived stem cells for treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus in mice
Abstract Introduction: Type 1 diabetes mellitus disease (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which pancreatic islets are attacked by the host’s immune system. Although this disease can be treated using some of the current methods, resistance to therapy can develop over time after a long usage of the treatments. Therefore, new strategies to treat T1D have…

Production of endothelial progenitor cells from skin fibroblasts by direct reprogramming for clinical usages
Abstract Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play an important role in angiogenesis. However, they exist in limited numbers in the human body. This study was aimed to produce EPCs, for autologous transplantation, using direct reprogramming of skin fibroblasts under GMP-compliant conditions. Fibroblasts were collected and cultured from the skin in DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 5% activated…

The effects of transplanted cells in stem cell therapy for myocardial ischemia
Abstract It is known that myocardial infarction (MI) causes damages to the heart tissue and that present medical therapies, such as medication, stenting and coronary artery bypass surgery, cannot recover the injured heart. Fortunately, advances in stem cell research have brought hope of full heart recovery for myocardial ischemia patients. There have been many studies…

Umbilical cord derived stem cell (ModulatistTM) transplantation for severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a report of two cases
Abstract Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic disease affecting the airway of the respiratory system. COPD cases have rapidly increased in recent years, with the disease becoming the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. Stem cell transplantation is a new approach to treat COPD. In this study we report in two cases the…

Stem cell drugs: the next generation of pharmaceutical products
Abstract Stem cells represent a new treatment option in medicine and pharmacy. Stem cells have been increasingly used for the treatment of many diseases. In fact, they have spurred a new age of medicine called regenerative medicine. In recent years, regenerative medicine has become a new revolution in disease treatment, especially with the use of…

Adipose derived stem cell transplantation is better than bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in treating hindlimb ischemia in mice
Abstract Introduction: Bone marrow derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) and adipose derived MSCs (AD-MSCs) are among the types of stem cells most commonly studied. Our study aims to compare the therapeutic efficacy of allograft AD-MSCs versus BM-MSCs in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. Methods: AD-MSCs were isolated from belly fat and BM-MSCs were isolated from femur bone…

Overexpress of CD47 does not alter the stemness of MCF-7 breast cancer cells
Abstract Background: CD47 is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on all cells in the body and particularly overexpressed on cancer cells and cancer stem cells of both hematologic and solid malignancies. In the immune system, CD47 acts as a “don’t eat me” signal, inhibiting phagocytosis by macrophages by interaction with signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα). In…

Hepatocyte growth factor improves direct reprogramming of fibroblasts towards endothelial progenitor cells via ETV2 transduction
Abstract Human fibroblasts can be differentiated into endothelial progenitor cells by direct reprogramming via ETV-2 transfection. Previously, we have shown that the efficacy of direct reprogramming can be enhanced by hypoxia treatment. In this study, we aim to investigate whether the efficacy of direct reprogramming of fibroblasts into EPCs via Ets variant gene 2 (ETV2)…

In vitro expansion of mesenchymal stem cells for clinical use
In vitro expansion of mesenchymal stem cells for clinical use Phuc Van Pham, Ngoc Bich Vu Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) now are popular stem cells for clinical applications. To date, MSCs were accepted in various disease treatments with several FDA approved treatments in some countries. One important requirement for the clinical usage of…
