Journal ArticleDOI
A New Human Somatic Stem Cell from Placental Cord Blood with Intrinsic Pluripotent Differentiation Potential
Gesine Kögler,Sandra Sensken,Judith A. Airey,Thorsten Trapp,Markus Müschen,Niklas Feldhahn,Stefanie Liedtke,Rüdiger V. Sorg,Johannes C. Fischer,Claudia Rosenbaum,Susanne Greschat,Andreas Knipper,Jörg Bender,Özer Degistirici,Jizong Gao,Arnold I. Caplan,Evan Colletti,Graça Almeida-Porada,Hans Werner Müller,Esmail D. Zanjani,Peter Wernet +20 more
TL;DR: A new, intrinsically pluripotent, CD45-negative population from human cord blood, termed unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs) is described, which grows adherently and can be expanded to 1015 cells without losing pluripotency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine production and hematopoiesis supporting activity of cord blood-derived unrestricted somatic stem cells.
Gesine Kögler,Teja Falk Radke,Aurélie Lefort,Sandra Sensken,Johannes C. Fischer,Rüdiger V. Sorg,Peter Wernet +6 more
TL;DR: USSC produce functionally significant amounts of hematopoiesis-supporting cytokines and are superior to BMMSC in expansion of CD34+ cells from CB and are therefore a suitable candidate for stroma-driven ex vivo expansion of heMatopoietic CB cells for short-term reconstitution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative generation and characterization of pluripotent unrestricted somatic stem cells with mesenchymal stem cells from human cord blood
TL;DR: These USSCs or MSCs from CB, when matched for HLA antigens, may serve as an allogeneic stem cell source for the development of cellular therapy for tissue repair and can be easily obtained from fresh CB samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro differentiation of human cord blood-derived unrestricted somatic stem cells towards an endodermal pathway
Sandra Sensken,Simon Waclawczyk,Anja S Knaupp,Thorsten Trapp,Jürgen Enczmann,Peter Wernet,Gesine Kögler +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that USSC can differentiate in vitro into an endodermal-like cell with a phenotype similar to hepatic cells, and endodermaly differentiated USSC might be a useful alternative for cell replacement in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine Production and Hematopoiesis Supporting Activity of Cord Blood Derived Unrestricted Somatic Stem Cells.
Gesine Koegler,Teja Falk Radke,Aurélie Lefort,Sandra Sensken,Johannes C. Fischer,Rüdiger V. Sorg,Peter Wernet +6 more
TL;DR: USSC produce functionally significant amounts of hematopoiesis supporting cytokines and are able to expand CD34+ cells from CB in significantly higher amounts compared to BMMSC, therefore the USSC is a suitable candidate to direct ex-vivo expansion of heMatopoietic CB cells for short term reconstitution.
