Human Placental Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Cat.No.

Description

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from human placenta are a well-characterized population of adult stem cells. Number of researchers have shown that adult MSCs have a broad therapeutic potential due to their capability to renew and differentiate into various lineages of mature cells that produce fat, cartilage, bone, tendon, and muscle when cultured under specific permissive conditions. In addition, placenta derived MSC show differentiation capacity toward both osteo-blasts and adipocytes thus serving as a great model for studying the molecular basis of differentiation. These properties, in combination with their developmental plasticity, have generated tremendous interest in regenerative medicine to replace damaged tissues. These findings have spurred the development of MSC-based therapies for treating wide range of non-skeletal diseases.
