Efficient generation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cord blood in stroma-free liquid culture.

Efficient generation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cord blood in stroma-free liquid culture.

BACKGROUND: Haematopoiesis is sustained by haematopoietic (HSC) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). HSC are the precursors for blood cells, whereas marrow, stroma, bone, cartilage, muscle and connective tissues derive from MSC. The generation of MSC from umbilical cord blood (UCB) is possible, but wit...
