Research Abstract |
The intravenous cell transplantation using bone marrow stromal cells or bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells suppressed systemic inflammatory response, reduced multiple organ injuries and improved mortality rate against the animal model of critical illness. Sepsis induced in rodents altered the expression of gene to regulate stem cell function in the each organ. When endothelial cells or choroid plexus epithelial cells were co-cultured with bone marrow stromal cells, the factors to enhance stem cell function were up-regulated at the transcriptional level in their cells. Cell transplantation therapy is a promising modality to activate endogenous stem cells and to protect and regenerate injured organs in the treatment of critical illness.
