Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of a pulmonary disorder is provided. The composition contains mesenchymal stem cells showing improved proliferation and differentiation capacity which are characterized by the expression or non-expression of one or more particular cell markers. Also, provided is a method for obtaining mesenchymal stem cells showing improved proliferation and differentiation capacity based on the expression or non-expression of such cell markers. The mesenchymal stem cells having improved proliferation and differentiation capacity can be easily obtained from mesenchymal stem cells of various origins based on the expression or non-expression of CD26, CD49f, CD146 and EGFR. The mesenchymal stem cells thus obtained can be effectively used for the prevention or treatment of a pulmonary disorder such as, for example, pulmonary emphysema.

Abstract: A method for culturing mesenchymal stem cells. The method includes isolating mesenchymal stem cells having a size of 8 ?m or less and culturing the mesenchymal stem cells in a medium containing calcium and magnesium and under a low oxygen condition. The method can significantly improve the proliferative capacity and differentiation potential of the mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract: The present invention provides a device for culturing cells. The device includes a well and a membrane. The well has an internal space and a membrane actuating control channel. The internal space has an inlet and an outlet. The membrane is provided between the membrane actuating control channel and the internal space such that the membrane actuating control channel is isolated from the internal space. The membrane is elastically varied in shape to form a three-dimensional cell culture space in the internal space.
