Expansion of Umbilical Cord Blood Using a Unique Bio-system

NCT01061879 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 8

Last updated 2013-01-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

By doing this study, researchers hope to develop a special technique and laboratory conditions to help support umbilical stem cell growth and multiplication.

In this project, researchers propose a three dimensional (3D) microenvironment that mimics the bone marrow stem cell microenvironment, with its supporting cells of osteoblasts and stromal cells. In theory, this will result in better expansion of cord blood stem cells ex vivo.
