PLACENTA-DERIVED MULTIPOTENT STEM CELLS

摘要

This disclosure provides isolated cells and compositions comprising one or more isolated cell(s) as described herein. In one aspect, the isolated cell is a pre-term placenta-derived stem cell (also referred to placenta-derived multi potent stem cells (pmSCs ). As used herein, the term "pre-term placenta-derived multipotent stem cell or placenta-derived stem cells" intends a cell isolated from placental tissue prior to delivery of the fetus by surgery or birth. In another aspect, the isolated cell is a chorionic villus (CV)-derived multipotent placental stem cells (C-mpSCs). Also provided are compositions comprising these cells, wherein the composition comprises an effective amount of the isolated cells as described herein.
