3D-Spheroid Culture of Human Gingiva-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Enhances Mitigation of Chemotherapy-Induced Oral Mucositis
Researchers report a 3D-spheroid culture approach to optimize stem cell properties and therapeutic effects of human gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells in mitigation of experimental oral mucositis. [Stem Cells Dev]

To develop an effective therapeutic strategy for cardiac regeneration using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs), the primary mouse BM-MSCs (1^st BM-MSCs) and 5^th passage BM-MSCs from β-galactosidase transgenic mice were respectively intramyocardially transplanted into the acute myocardial infarction model of wild type mice.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Injection Ameliorates Chronic Renal Failure in a Rat Model
Researchers evaluated the effect of mesenchymal stem cells in the progression of chronic kidney disease and the expression of molecular biomarkers associated with regenerative effects. [Clin Sci]

Intrapulmonary Delivery of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Attenuates Acute Lung Injury by Expanding CD4CD25⁺ Forkhead Boxp3 (FOXP3)⁺ Regulatory T Cells and Balancing Anti- and Pro-inflammatory Factors
The present study was designed to determine whether human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are able to act on CD4⁺CD25⁺ Foxp3⁺Treg cells and lead to an improvement in acute lung injury. [Cell Physiol Biochem]

Transplantation of Flk-1+ Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promotes Angiogenesis and Neurogenesis after Cerebral Ischemia in Rats
Researchers examined whether bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell-induced angiogenesis enhances cerebral tissue perfusion and creates a suitable microenvironment within the ischemic brain, which in turn accelerates endogenous neurogenesis and leads to improved functional recovery. [Eur J Neurosci]

Isolation and Cellular Properties of Mesenchymal Cells Derived from the Decidua of Human Term Placenta
Researchers isolated plastic-adherent cells from human term decidua vera, called decidua-derived-mesenchymal cells, and compared their properties with those of bone marrow-derived-mesenchymal stem cells. [Differentiation]

Genetically-Modified Pig Mesenchymal Stromal Cells: Xenoantigenicity and Effect on Human T-Cell Xenoresponses
Mesenchymal stromal cells from wild-type, α1,3-galactosyltransferase gene knockout (GTKO) and GTKO pigs transgenic for the human complement-regulatory protein CD46 were isolated and tested for differentiation. [Xenotransplantation]

Bond Financier Elected to Chair California Stem Cell Agency
The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine has elected southern California investor Jonathan Thomas to be its next chair. [California Institute for Regenerative Medicine Press Release]

UC Davis Clinical and Translational Science Center Receives Renewed Grant Funding
The University of California (UC) Davis Clinical and Translational Science Center received renewed grant funding of $20 million from the National Center for Research Resources. [University of California, Davis Press Release]
