Epiphyseal Chondroprogenitors Provide a Stable Cell Source for Cartilage Cell Therapy.
Articular cartilage regeneration poses particularly tough challenges for implementing cell-based therapies. Many cell types have been investigated looking for a balanced combination of responsiveness and stability, yet techniques are still far from defining a gold standard. The work presented focuses on the reliable expansion and characterization of a clinical grade human epiphyseal chondroprog...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cell Purification from the Articular Cartilage Cell Culture
Objective Articular cartilage as an avascular skeletal tissue possesses limited capacity to heal. On the other hand, it is believed that the regeneration capacity of each tissue is largely related to its stem cell contents. Little is known about the presence of mesenchymal stem cells in articular cartilage tissue. This subject is investigated in the present study. Materials and Methods Artic...
متن کاملCartilage Regeneration Using Pluripotent Stem Cell‐ Derived Chondroprogenitors: Promise and Challenges
The cartilage of joints is long‐lasting (i.e., permanent) cartilage and is not spontane‐ ously repaired after injury in humans. There has been considerable interest in the clinical application of stem cells to the repair of damaged cartilage; however, current cell therapies using adult chondrocytes and mesenchymal stromal cells face problems associated with the low yield of such cells. The expa...
متن کاملMinced cartilage without cell culture serves as an effective intraoperative cell source for cartilage repair.
Traumatic articular cartilage injuries heal poorly and may predispose patients to the early onset of osteoarthritis. One current treatment relies on surgical delivery of autologous chondrocytes that are prepared, prior to implantation, through ex vivo cell expansion of cartilage biopsy cells. The requirement for cell expansion, however, is both complex and expensive and has proven to be a major...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Stable Cell Line, Overexpressing Human T-cell Immunoglobulin Mucin 1
Background: Recent researches have demonstrated that human T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 1 (TIM-1) glycoprotein plays important roles in regulation of autoimmune and allergic diseases, as well as in tumor immunity and response to viral infections. Therefore,targeting TIM-1 could be a potential therapeutic approach against such diseases. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to express TIM-1 protein...
