  • Effect of Cryopreservation and Resuscitation on Biological Characteristics of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Human Umbilical Cord Blood

    Objective  To observe the effects of cryopreservation and resuscitation on the biological characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived f rom human umbilical cord blood. Methods  MSCs were isolated and cultured f rom human umbilical cord blood in vitro. The cells were passaged , and the third generation of MSCs were cryopreserved in-196 ℃ liquid nitrogen for 4 weeks with cryopreservation medium , which contained 10 % dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 90 % fetal calf serum ( FCS) . The morphology , proliferation and differentiation of MSCs were investigated and compared with those of MSCs before cryopreservation. Results  There was no significant difference of morphology between pre-cryopreserved MSCs and the ones af ter resuscitation. It was observed that all MSCs were spindle-shaped and showed adherence growth characteristic before and af ter cryopreservation. The cell growth curves of MSCs were also similar before and af ter cryopreservation. Even though the curve of resuscitated MSCs descended a little as compared with that of pre-cryopreserved MSCs , there was no significant difference ( Pgt; 0. 05) . After 2-week adipocytic differentiation induction , fat drops could be found in the kytoplasm of MSCs and they were red when stained with oil-red O staining , which suggested that MSCs could be induced and differentiated into adipocytes. Af ter 4-week osteoblastic differentiation induction , MSCs could be induced and differentiated into osteoblasts , and calcium node showed black when stained with Von Kossa staining. There were no significant changes of the differentiating ability of MSCs into adipocyte and osteoblast before and after cryopreservation. Conclusion  MSCs derived from human umbilical cord blood maintains their biological characteristics af ter cryopreservation and resuscitation.
