Abstract

Although experimental and clinical trials using bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells demonstrated promising results, cells from other sources have also been explored. We report the isolation, expansion and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human umbilical cord blood and compare the results to those of MSCs derived from human bone marrow, adipose tissue and chorionic villi of placenta. Though surface antigens of these various MSCs did not show significant differences, differentiation abilities were significantly different among these MSCs.
