Due to its wide- spread availability, the umbilical cord may be an excellent alternative source of cells for regenerative medicine. Anatomically, umbilical cord tissue is constituted of several different parts, and, accordingly, immunostaining of cord tissue sections revealed differential distribution of several markers and extracellular matrix, distinguishing the various layers. Wharton’s jelly is the major component filling the inner part of the umbilical cord tissue, and it has been commonly used as a source of obtaining multipotent cells from umbilical cord. We recently reported isolating mesenchymal stem cells from cord lining membrane (sub-amnion).

This allowed to first define the features of the peculiar tissue constituting the bulk of the cord, now known as Wharton’s jelly (WJ), that is nowadays classified as a mature mucoid connective tissue. The embryological origin of the UC is quite complex because different extraembryonic tissues concur to its formation: extraembryonic mesoderm, extraembryonic endoderm, amnioblasts. There is a vast literature on the development of the UC tissues since the first phases of differentiation and specification of its constituents. With respect to the difficulties to work with human embryos, studies on animal models shed new light on the developmental origin of the cells found in mature UC.

  • Current Status and Future Prospects of Perinatal Stem Cells
    G C A T T A C G G C A T genes Review Current Status and Future Prospects of Perinatal Stem Cells Paz de la Torre and Ana I. Flores * Grupo de Medicina Regenerativa, Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Hospital 12 de Octubre (imas12), Avda. Cordoba s/n, 28041 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: anaisabel.fl[email protected] or afl[email protected] Abstract: The placenta is a temporary organ that is discarded after birth and is one of the most promising sources of various cells and tissues for use in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, both in experimental and clinical settings. The placenta has unique, intrinsic features because it plays many roles during gestation: it is formed by cells from two individuals (mother and fetus), contributes to the development and growth of an allogeneic fetus, and has two independent and interacting circulatory systems. Different stem and progenitor cell types can be isolated from the different perinatal tissues making them particularly interesting candidates for use in cell therapy and regenerative medicine. The primary source of perinatal stem cells is cord blood. Cord blood has been a well-known source of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells since 1974. Biobanked cord blood has been used to treat different hematological and immunological disorders for over 30 years. Other perinatal tissues that are routinely discarded as medical waste contain non-hematopoietic cells with potential therapeutic value. Indeed, in advanced perinatal cell therapy trials, mesenchymal stromal cells are the most commonly used. Here, we review one by one the different perinatal tissues and the different perinatal stem cells isolated with their phenotypical characteristics and the preclinical uses of these cells in numerous pathologies.
