| Researchers investigated the efficacy of a biomimetic hydroxyapatite-gradient scaffold isolated from adipose tissue with umbilical cord derived MSCs on the regeneration of the structure of the tendon-to-bone interface by analyzing the histological and biomechanical changes in a rat repair model.

| Amniotic fluid stem cells were isolated as CD117-positive cells from human amniotic fluid. Three-day-old rat pups were intraperitoneally treated with lipopolysaccharide to mimic neonatal sepsis. [Stem Cell Research & Therapy] |

|
| A cohort of eight pediatric cereberal palsy (CP) patients with intact corticospinal tracts from a randomized, placebo‐controlled trial of autologous umbilical cord blood stem‐cell therapy in CP children was included in this study. [Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging] |

|
| Investigators demonstrated for the first time that angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and the entry-facilitating transmembrane protease TMPRSS2 were expressed on very small CD133+CD34+Lin−CD45− cells in human umbilical cord blood, which could be specified into functional hematopoietic stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells.

|
| Human umbilical cord (hUC)-MSCs were administered into chronic unpredictable mild stress model mice through the tail vein once a week for four weeks. After the administration of hUC-MSCs, the depression-like and anxiety-like phenotypes, neuronal histopathology, synaptic-related protein expression and inflammatory index of the mice were assessed.

|
| Scientists investigated the effects of preeclampsia in pregnancy on the stemness and differentiation potency of umbilical cord blood-hematopoietic stem cells. [BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth] |

|
| Researchers highlight how mitochondrial metabolism determines hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) fate, and especially focus on the links between mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and lysosomes in HSC metabolism. [Developmental Cell] |

| For the hundreds of thousands of people enrolling in clinical trials every year—and for whom experimental therapies can offer a last hope—a new report provides some welcome news: Enrollment in clinical studies in the United States is on the rebound after disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

| A historic €1.8-trillion (US$2.1-trillion) budget deal reached by European Union (EU) leaders to fund its next seven years — and its recovery from the coronavirus pandemic — has left scientists and research advocates disappointed. [Nature News] |
