Hypoxic Preconditioning of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Is an Effective Strategy for Treating Acute Lung Injury

When human umbilical cord MSCs were transplanted directly, only a minority of cells migrated toward damaged tissues. Moreover, their maintenance time was short, leading to unsatisfactory therapeutic results.

Feasibility of Reduced-Dose Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide and Cotransplantation of Peripheral Blood Stem Cells and Umbilical Cord-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for SAA

Scientists evaluated the effectiveness and safety of reduced-dose cyclophosphamide, 20 mg/kg for 13 patients in matched sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) cohort and 25 mg/kg for 22 patients in haplo-HSCT cohort, on days +3, +4 combined with cotransplantation of peripheral blood stem cells and human umbilical cord-derived MSCs for severe aplastic anemia (SAA).

miRNA-126-3p Carried by Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell Enhances Endothelial Function through Exosome-Mediated Mechanisms In Vitro and Attenuates Vein Graft Neointimal Formation In Vivo

Human umbilical cord MSCs (hucMSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were isolated from human umbilical cords and characterized by a series of experiments. Lentivirus vector encoding miRNA-126-3p was transfected into hucMSCs and verified by PCR.
