Abstract:
The present invention relates to equine amniotic fluid-derived multipotent stem cells (eAF-MSCs) and a preparation method thereof. More particularly, the present invention relates to equine amniotic fluid-derived multipotent stem cells which exhibit all negative immunological characteristics with respect to the human markers, CD19, CD20, CD28, CD31, CD34, CD38, CD41a, CD62L, CD62P and CD200, and exhibit all positive immunological characteristics with respect to the human markers, CD44, CD90 and CD105, and have the ability to differentiate into ectoderm, mesoderm or endoderm-derived cells. The present invention confirmed that equine amniotic fluid can be a source of equine adult multipotent stem cell supply, and the equine amniotic fluid-derived multipotent stem cells exhibit excellent self-renewal ability and differentiation capability. Therefore, the cells can be used as an active ingredient for cell therapy of horses, which requires a large amount of cells. In particular, the stem cells of the present invention having excellent self-renewal ability and differentiation capability are useful for the treatment of bone, tendon, or muscle injuries and bone loss diseases of racehorses.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a nanofiber mat, a manufacturing method thereof, and applications thereof as a mat for cell culturing or as a barrier membrane for guided bone regeneration (GBR). The nanofiber layer includes a nanofiber layer and a reinforcement pattern that is disposed on the nanofiber layer and adhesively connected with the nanofiber layer. The nanofiber layer and the reinforcement pattern are combined with each other by at least one of the melting-solidification of at least a part of the nanofiber layer together with the reinforcement pattern, the dissolution-solidification of the same, and the penetration of a part of the reinforcement pattern into the nanofiber layer, followed by solidification.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a medium composition containing an Ecklonia cava extract for dedifferentiation an induced pluripotent stem cell. Also, the present invention relates to a method for differentiating an induced pluripotent stem cell produced by using the medium composition into osteoblasts. When using the medium composition according to the present invention, induced pluripotent stem cells using mesenchymal stem cells can be produced efficiently, and the pluripotent stem cells which have been produced can be useful as a cell treatment agent by being capable of being differentiated into osteoblasts.

Abstract:
The invention provides, inter alia, populations of large mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)(as well as conditioned medium from these cells) with enhanced regenerative potential, as well as methods of culturing and using these populations, such as therapeutic methods of mediating tissue repair or enhancing homing and engraftment of hematopoietic stem cells. These large MSC populations can, in certain embodiments, be produced by biophysically sorting an MSC-containing population.
Abstract:
The present invention provides adipose-derived stem cells and lattices. In one aspect, the present invention provides a lipo-derived stem cell substantially free of adipocytes and red blood cells and clonal populations of connective tissue stem cells. The invention also provides a method of isolating stem cells from adipose tissues. The cells can be employed, alone or within biologically-compatible compositions, to generate differentiated tissues and structures, both in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, the cells can be expanded and cultured to produce hormones and to provide conditioned culture media for supporting the growth and expansion of other cell populations. In another aspect, the present invention provides a lipo-derived lattice substantially devoid of cells, which includes extracellular matrix material from adipose tissue. The lattice can be used as a substrate to facilitate the growth and differentiation of cells, whether in vivo or in vitro, into anlagen or even mature tissues or structures.
Abstract:
This invention concerns a formula for the synthesis of a printable hybrid material, formed of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) and polyphosphate (polyP). Both polymers are linked together by calcium ions. The inventive CMC-polyP material, in combination with alginate, is biocompatible, biodegradable and useful for three-dimensional (3D) printing and 3D cell printing (bioprinting). The CMC-polyP scaffold, hardened by exposure to calcium ions, is morphogenetically active and can be used in bone N tissue engineering, as a bio mimetic 3-phase scaffold that mimics and induces essential phases in bone repair, including blood clot formation and platelet degranulation (release of growth factors and cytokines) (Phase 1: initiation phase), calcium carbonate bioseed formation (Phase 2: nucleation) and expression/activation of bone alkaline phosphatase (Phase 3: hydroxyapatite-biomineral.
Abstract:
Identification and isolation of multipotent cells from non-osteochondral mesenchymal tissue. This invention relates to the identification and isolation of multipotent cells from non-osteochondral mesenchymal tissue. Specifically, it relates to an adult multipotent cell or a cell population or composition comprising said cell, isolated from non-osteochondral mesenchymal tissue, characterized in that it is positive for the following markers: CD9, CD10, CD13, CD29, CD44, CD49A, CD51, CD54, CD55, CD58, CD59, CD90 and CD105 and because it lacks expression of the following markers: CD11b, CD14, CD15, CD16, CD31, CD34, CD45, CD49f, CD102, CD104, CD106 and CD133.
