METHOD FOR INCREASING STEM CELL ACTIVITY AND STEM CELLS PRODUCED THEREBY

摘要

Disclosed is a method for increasing the activity of human stem cells. The method is characterized by treating a culture medium with endothelin-1. Also, the highly active human stem cells prepared by the method and cell therapeutics comprising the highly active human stem cells are provided. Human mesenchymal stem cells of various origins can be activated by the method, and thus resulting highly active human mesenchymal stem cells can be developed as effective cell therapeutics.
