METHOD FOR PROTECTING EMBRYONIC STEM CELL OF MIDKINE BY SUPPRESSING HYPOXIA-INDUCED APOPTOSIS

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for protecting embryonic stem cells using midkine which suppresses hypoxia-induced apoptosis is provided to activate HIF-1alpha. CONSTITUTION: A method for protecting embryonic stem cells comprises a step of treating midkine for HIF-1 alpha activation and hypoxia-induced apoptosis suppression. A medium for proliferating the embryonic stem cells contains midkine as an active ingredient for suppressing apoptosis.
