Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Few reports have quantitatively determined the levels of wound healing related factors in the conditioned media of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs).
OBJECTIVE: To measure the secretion levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, transforming growth factor 1 (TGF-1), monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), GM-CSF and TIMP-1 in HUMSCs derived conditioned media of 10 different individuals.
METHODS: For culturing HUMSCs, CCS1107 was used as fetal bovine serum supplement to the culture medium. 1.1x104/cm2 P2 cells were seeded in 100 mm diameter dishes, and after 96 hours’ culture, the supernatant was collected and applied to ELISA measurement.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: No significant secretion difference among 10 different individuals and between genders was observed. Of total factors being measured, the levels of MCP-1 and TIMP-1 were the highest. These results indicated that HUMSCs derived conditioned media contains numerous kinds of wound healing related factors, which may clinically provide a novel therapeutic method for treating various wound healing related impairments.
