Why you should know your human mesenchymal stem cells inside out
Doctors, and patients with chronic diseases, are putting hope into new findings in regenerative medicine that are based on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) research. As promising as some published results sound, they might be not reproducible – simply due to insufficient authentication and poor handling of cell cultures. Rigorous validation of cell identity is crucial for working with human mesenchymal stem cells – and,…

Stem cell therapy scientist: Finding inspiration outside his comfort zone
Crossing the border between medical and biomechanical research fuels the research of stem cell specialist Dr. Diego Correa. We talked to the Colombian-born stem cell scientist, a former clinician with training in mechanical engineering, about his studies with mesenchymal stem cells and their potential clinical applications in cell-based therapy. Soon Correa is going to publish what he believes will be his most important contribution to this field….

Scaling up from 2D monolayers to complex 3D cell cultures
Using three-dimensional cell cultures is more popular today than ever. Yet as the complexity of cell culture increases – from 2D cell culture, spheroids, 3D models up to organoids – so do the variables. This means you should plan carefully before advancing from 2D to 3D cell culture. Keeping several key factors in mind,…

Trouble With Your Primary Cells? Treat Them Nicely!
What seems basic to cell culturing is pure stress for primary cells: thawing, subcultivation and freezing. Even seasoned scientists tend to overlook this aspect, and manipulate their cultures less carefully than they should. Unhealthy, or even dead cells are the sad consequence. Here, you can benefit from an expert’s tips in handling primary cells,…

Mesenchymal stem cells: why optimizing manufacturing processes is key for a successful application
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the up-and-coming stars of cell therapy. They are able to differentiate, are very adaptable and can reduce inflammation, making them ideal for regenerative medicine approaches. But the demand for MSCs is far greater than supply. Pharmaceutical companies are racing to produce commercial-scale quantities of MSCs while guaranteeing quality standards….
