Serum-free culture of hematopoietic stem cells: a review

Stem Cells
J S LebkowskiT B Okarma

Abstract

The development of serum-free systems for the maintenance and expansion of both primitive and committed hematopoietic progenitors has numerous applications in both basic and clinical research. Many different media have been tested and refined over the years, and current formulations now yield results similar to those observed with fetal bovine serum-based medias. Using these serum-free culture systems, the impact of the cell microenvironment and individual growth factors on primitive and maturing stem cells have both been studied. The utility of progenitor populations expanded ex vivo under serum-free conditions is under investigation.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
