Characterization of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is vital for their successful application in regenerative medicine. These multipotent cells can differentiate into several cell types, making them a promising therapeutic option for various diseases. In our blog post, we discuss the importance of MSC characterization in ensuring standardized and reproducible cell isolation,…

Cells in action: Differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells into neurons
In this video we can see the differentiation of PromoCell umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into neurons. Excitingly, to our knowledge this is one of the first high-resolution, long-term, live cell time-lapses showing this process. These cells were grown for 13 days in PromoCell complete mesenchymal stem cell neurogenic differentiation medium prior to capture of this film….

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….

Some human mesenchymal stem cells are more equal than others – origins and differences
It is a scientific success story that started approximately 40 years ago – and was initially met with skepticism. Although the pioneers of mesenchymal stem cell research were initially criticized, today thousands of publications and hundreds of clinical trials focus on multipotent cells. New MSC research is suggesting that in the end,…

PromoCells in space continues – producing human tissue in a weightless environment
Two research leaders from the University of Zurich (UZH) Space Hub, Professor Oliver Ullrich and Dr. Cora Thiel, have sent adult human stem cells to the International Space Station (ISS). They are testing an innovative method to produce human tissue in a weightless environment, and hope to better understand how human tissue is produced in the weightless atmosphere of space….

Growing stem cells in space – PromoCell aboard the International Space Station
In March 2020, two researchers at the University of Zurich (UZH) Space Hub, Professor Oliver Ullrich and Dr. Cora Thiel, sent human stem cells to space to determine if they could develop into three-dimensional organoids. Three years later, the results of this and a subsequent experiment demonstrate that culturing stem cells in space is possible,…
