Human mesenchymal stem cells possess different biological characteristics but do not change their therapeutic potential when cultured in serum free medium
4 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are widely investigated in clinical researches to treat various diseases. Classic culture medium for MSCs, even for clinical use, contains fetal bovine serum. The serum-containing medium (SCM) seems a major obstacle for MSCs-related therapies due to the risk of contamination of infectious pathogens. Some studies showed that MSCs could be expanded in serum free medium...
