Stem Cells | 2011-10-21 Soluble intracellular adhesion molecule-1 secreted by human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cell reduces amyloid β plaques.
This study demonstrates that in an Alzheimer’s type, amyloid-β developed in the hippocampus is reduced by human UCB derived MSCs. These data suggested that hUCB-MSC-derived sICAM-1 removes Aβ plaques indirectly by inducing NEP expression in microglia.· Issue information | Cell Death Differ. 2012 Apr;19(4):680-91. · Co-author | Kim JY, Kim DH, Kim JH, Lee D, Kim SM, Jeon HB, Kwon SJ, Choi SJ, Lee EH, Yoo YJ, Seo SW, Lee JI, Na DL, Yang YS, Oh W, Chang JW. |

PNEUMOSTEM | 2011-08-01 Intratracheal transplantation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells attenuates Escherichia coli-induced acute lung injury in mice.
This study shows results that intratracheal transplantation of umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells in acute lung injury by bacteria can mitigate the injury by promoting anti-inflammatory reaction and bacterial removal.· Issue information | Respir Res. 2011 Aug 15;12:108. · Co-author | ES Kim, YS Chang, SJ Choi, JK Kim, HS Yoo, SY Ahn, DK Sung, SY Kim, YR Park, WS Park. |
Stem Cells | 2011-03-31 CXC chemokine receptor 1 enhances the ability of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells to migrate toward gliomas.
This study is a report that overexpression of CXCR1, one of chemokine receptor, by genetic insertion can enhance therapeutic effect of MSC in migration mechanism of hUCB-MSCs toward tumors in treating brain tumor.· Issue information | Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2011 Apr 22;407(4):741-6. · Co-author | Kim SM, Kim DS, Jeong CH, Kim DH, Kim JH, Jeon HB, Kwon SJ, Jeun SS, Yang YS, Oh W, Chang JW. |
Stem Cells | 2011-03-04 Neural Differentiation of Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor-expressing Human Umbilical Cord Blood-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Culture via TrkB-mediated ERK and β-catenin Phosphorylation and following Transplantation into the Developing Brain.
This study identified neural regeneration effect of BDNF and its mechanism in neurological disease treatment of hUCB-MSCs. The results indicate that when injecting BDNF overexpressed in hUCB-MSCs, it induces the neural differentiation of hUCB-MSCs via the phosphorylation of ERKs and β-catenin.· Issue information | Cell Transplant. 2011;20(11-12):1855-66. · Co-author | Lim JY, Park SI, Kim SM, Jun JA, Oh JH, Ryu CH, Jeong CH, Park SH, Park SA, Oh W, Chang JW, Jeun SS. |
PNEUMOSTEM | 2011-01-01 Intratracheal Transplantation of Human Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Dose-Dependently Attenuates Hyperoxia-Induced Lung Injury in Neonatal Rats.
This study shows results that intratracheal transplantation of human UCB derived MSCs may attenuate hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal rats by modulating host inflammatory responses and oxidative stress.· Issue information | Cell Transplant. 2011;20(11-12):1843-54. · Co-author | YS Chang, SJ Choi, DK Sung, SY Kim,W Oh, YS Yang, WS Park. |
Stem Cells | 2010-12-01 Irradiation enhances the tumor tropism and therapeutic potential of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand-secreting human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells in glioma therapy.
This study proved that when irradiation was added to brain tumor therapy, tumor tropism of hUCB-MSCs into which TRAIL gene inducing apoptosis was introduced was increased to enhance its therapeutic effect.· Issue information | Stem Cells. 2010 Dec;28(12):2217-28. · Co-author | Kim SM, Oh JH, Park SA, Ryu CH, Lim JY, Kim DS, Chang JW, Oh W, Jeun SS. |
Stem Cells | 2010-08-01 Galectin-3 secreted by human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells reduces amyloid-beta42 neurotoxicity in vitro.
This study shows that galectin-3(GAL-3), a protein secreted from hUCB-MSCs, protects neurons from toxicity of amyloid-β, a cause substance of Alzheimer type dementia.· Issue information | FEBS Lett. 2010 Aug 20;584(16):3601-8. · Co-author | Kim JY, Kim DH, Kim DS, Kim JH, Jeong SY, Jeon HB, Lee EH, Yang YS, Oh W, Chang JW. |
Stem Cells | 2010-06-01 GD2 expression is closely associated with neuronal differentiation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
