What are umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells?


Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a kind of pluripotent stem cells existing in the umbilical cord tissue of newborn babies, which can be induced to differentiate into many kinds of tissue cells under a specific environment, and have a broad clinical application prospect.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are another hotspot of scientific research after embryonic stem cells and haematopoietic stem cells, and they are a kind of ‘practical stem cells’ capable of treating a variety of systemic diseases.

Uses of umbilical cord MSCs:

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are derived from embryonic tissues in the early stages of development, and are pluripotent stem cells, so named because they are found in human mesenchymal tissues. They have the characteristics of multi-directional differentiation potential, hematopoietic reconstruction support and promotion of stem cell implantation, immune regulation and self-replication, etc. They can be induced in vivo or in vitro by specific triggers. Under specific induction conditions in vivo or in vitro, they can be differentiated into bone, cartilage, muscle, tendon, ligament, nerve, liver, myocardium, blood vessel, epithelium, endothelium, fat and other tissues, and they still have multidirectional differentiation potential after successive passaging cultures and cryopreservation, so they can be used as ideal seed cells for repairing tissues and organs caused by aging and lesions.
