摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of treating or preventing angiogenesis-related diseases by the administration of stem cells and/or progeny cells thereof.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of enhancing proliferation and/or survival of mesenchymal precursor cells (MPC) and/or progeny derived therefrom in vitro or in vivo comprising exposing the MPC or progeny to SDF-1 or analog thereof. The invention also relates to compositions comprising isolated MPCs or progeny derived therefrom and SDF-1 or analogues thereof. The present invention also relates to using such methods and compositions for ex vivo or in vivo bone formation in mammals.
摘要:
Mesenchymal precursors cells have been isolated from perivascular niches from a range of tissues utilizing a perivascular marker. A new mesenchymal precursor cell phenotype is described characterized by the presence of the perivascular marker 3G5, and preferably also alpha smooth muscle actin together with early developmental markers such as MUC 18, VCAM-1 and STRO-1bri. The perivascular mesenchymal precursor cell is multipotential and is shown to form, vascular tissue, as well as bone marrow dentin and pulp. A method of enriching using cell sorting based on these markers is also described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody designated STRO-4 which specifically binds human and ovine HSP-90beta and its use for enriching multipotential cells such as mesenchymal precursor cells (MPCs).

摘要:
A method of enriching mesenchymal precursor sells including the step of enriching for cells based on at least two markers. The markers may be either i) the presence of markers specific for mesenchymal precursor cells, ii) the absence of markers specific for differentiated mesenchymal cells, or iii) expression levels of markers specific for mesenchymal precursor cells. The method may include a first solid phase sorting step utilizing MACS recognizing expression of the antigen to the STRO-1 Mab, followed by a second sorting step utilizing two color FACS to screen for the presence of high level STRO-1 antigen expression as well as the expression of VCAM-1.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) as a marker for identifying and/or isolating adult multipotential cells. The present invention also relates to cell populations enriched by methods of the present invention and therapeutic uses of these cells.
