TLDR
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.

Mesenchymal stem cells in health and disease

TL;DR: The targets and mechanisms of M SC-mediated immunomodulation and the possible translation of MSCs to new therapeutic approaches are discussed.

Human mesenchymal stem cells inhibit neutrophil apoptosis: a model for neutrophil preservation in the bone marrow niche

TL;DR: In the bone marrow niche, MSC likely protect neutrophils of the storage pool from apoptosis, preserving their effector functions and preventing the excessive or inappropriate activation of the oxidative metabolism, and a novel mechanism whereby the inflammatory potential of activated neutrophil is harnessed by inhibition of apoptosis and reactive oxygen species production without impairing phagocytosis and chemotaxis has been identified.

Mesenchymal stem cells: a new strategy for immunosuppression?

TL;DR: It is possible that some of the beneficial effects of MSCs might reflect, in part, the trophic and protective activities they exert on injured cells and tissues, rather than resulting from a true transdifferentiation.

Multilineage Potential of Adult Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

TL;DR: Adult stem cells isolated from marrow aspirates of volunteer donors could be induced to differentiate exclusively into the adipocytic, chondrocytic, or osteocytic lineages.

Notch Signaling: Cell Fate Control and Signal Integration in Development

TL;DR: Notch signaling defines an evolutionarily ancient cell interaction mechanism, which plays a fundamental role in metazoan development, providing a general developmental tool to influence organ formation and morphogenesis.

Mesenchymal progenitor cells in human umbilical cord blood.

TL;DR: The results suggest that preterm, as compared with term, cord blood is richer in mesenchymal progenitors, similar to haematopoietic progenitor cells.

TL;DR: Preclinical and early clinical safety studies are paving the way for further applications of mesenchymal stem cells in the field of transplantation with respect to hematopoietic support, immunoregulation, and graft facilitation.

Outcomes among 562 Recipients of Placental-Blood Transplants from Unrelated Donors

TL;DR: Placental blood is a useful source of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells for bone marrow reconstitution and is associated with the severity of GVHD, type of leukemia, and stage of the disease.
