Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed at making disease specific model mice treated with umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSC). As the model of neonatal encephalopathy, we made mice with intraventricular hemorrhage and found the UC-MSC ameliorated the neuromuscular functions and protect the reactive gliosis. We also made the newborn chronic lung disease induced by hyperoxygen, and the UC-MSC also improved the overall survival with decrease of inflammatory cytokines and interstitial fibrosis. Hemophilia B mice were induced hepatic disorder by CCl4 and UC-MSC could migrate to the injured tissue, but failed to ameliorate the damage and survival at the presence. Conclusively, UC-MSC may be useful for neonatal complications such as neuropathy and lung disease.
