Abstract: The present invention relates to treatment of pulmonary fibrosis with umbilical mesenchymal stem cell.

Abstract: The present invention relates to treatment of pulmonary fibrosis with umbilical mesenchymal stem cell.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for treating a skin wound in a subject, which comprises administering the skin wound with a composition comprising umbilical mesenchymal stem cells. More particularly, the composition is used for improving wound healing.

Abstract: A method for promoting a differentiation of stem cells into insulin producing cells is provided. The method includes steps of suspending the stem cells in a first culture medium, aggregating the stem cells to form a cell pellet, and culturing the cell pellet in a second culture medium to promote the differentiation of the stem cells of the cell pellet into the insulin producing cells.

Abstract: A method for treating or preventing an ischemic brain injury or neurological damage due to ischemia in a subject includes transplanting a therapeutically effective amount of human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) obtained from Wharton's Jelly to the ischemic areas of the brain injury or the neurological damage of the subject. Recovery from neurological behavior deficits also is improved according by the method.

Abstract: A method for treating liver diseases or liver damage, including but not limited to liver fibrosis, and/or aiding recovery from liver diseases, including but not limited to liver fibrosis, or liver damage in a subject, includes transplanting human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) obtained from Wharton's Jelly to the area of liver disease or damage of the subject.

Abstract: A cell system for treating neurodegenerative disorders in a mammal is provided. The cell system includes a population of neurons differentiated from umbilical mesenchymal stem cells for expressing at least one of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopamine-?-hydroxylase (DBH), glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) and dopaminergic transporter (DAT) in a cell culture. A method for treating neurodegenerative disorders in a mammal is also provided. The method comprises the steps of differentiating umbilical mesenchymal stem cells into a population of neurons that express at least one of TH, DBH, GAD, AADC and DAT in a cell culture, and transplanting the population of neurons into the brain of the mammal.

Abstract: Transplantation of human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) to an area of a spinal injury is therapeutically effective in treating the spinal injury. Methods for treating spinal injuries based on such transplantation are described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of generating neurons from stem cells which comprises culturing neurons in a medium and culturing the stem cells in the resultant mixture. The present invention also relates to a medium for culturing stem cells prepared by culturing neurons in a base culture medium.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) in the treatment of brain tumor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cell system and a method for generating somatic cells.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of generating neurons from stem cells which comprises culturing neurons in a medium and culturing the stem cells in the resultant mixture. The present invention also relates to a medium for culturing stem cells prepared by culturing neurons in a base culture medium.
