| To investigate the functions of exosomes derived from human umbilical cord MSC (hucMSC-ex) in a rat model of acute skin photodamage, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining, quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction, western blot, and gene silencing assays were performed.

|
| Researchers established the original footprint-free Vietnamese human induced pluripotent stem cell line, VRISGi001-A, from cord-blood derived CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells of a 35 year old healthy woman under cGMP-compliant process. [Stem Cell Research] |
|
|
|
| Motor function was analyzed by three behavioral tests. Engraftment of human amniotic fluid stem cell in organs were assessed by flow cytometry and RNA scope. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators hypothesized that the perivascular properties of human umbilical cord perivascular cells could reduce vascular dysfunction after modelled traumatic brain injury by preserving the pericyte-endothelial interactions. [Journal of Neurotrauma] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated whether icrovesicles derived from human Wharton’s jelly MSCs regulated macrophage polarization and ameliorated renal fibrosis following ischemia-partial nephrectomy via transferring hepatocyte growth factor. [Human Cell] |
|
|
|
| Researchers compared the angiogenic potential of MSCs obtained from bone marrow, adipose tissue and umbilical cord matrix that were genetically modified with VEGF‐encoding minicircle vectors. [Journal of Gene Medicine] |
|
|
|
| The authors induced human umbilical cord (hUC)-MSCs to differentiate into type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s), and provided evidence that intratracheal transplantation of hUC-MSC-derived AEC2s could improve mortality and alleviate fibrosis in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis mice.

|
|
|
| Scientists focus on expression of chemokine receptors and chemokine ligands by MSCs isolated from different tissues. [Journal of Translational Medicine] |

| Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. announced the completion of enrollment in its Phase Ib study of human allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs infusions to treat COVID-19 induced acute respiratory failure or acute respiratory distress syndrome. [Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc.] |

|
| Hope Biosciences Stem Cell Research Foundation received FDA authorization for a Phase II clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple intravenous infusions of autologous adipose-derived MSCs in improving activities of daily living and quality of life in subjects with Parkinson’s Disease.
