Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)
<b>Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)<br></b>
Mesenchymal stem cells, also known as mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are fibroblast-like plastic-adherent cells that can be isolated from a variety of tissues, such as bone marrow, periosteum, trabecular bone, adipose tissue, synovium, skeletal muscle, dental pulp.

MSC research may provide the basis for a variety of potential clinical applications:
  • Tissue regeneration
  • Immunomodulation
  • Expansion of HSCs in vitro
  • Improved engraftment of HSCs
  • Delivery vehicle, e.g., for potential treatment of cancer or genetic disorders

To investigate the capability of MSCs in clinical applications, it is crucial to standardize their isolation and culture methods. Miltenyi Biotec has developed numerous tools and several protocols for MSC research.

Sample preparation
A special protocol for the isolation of MSCs/ADSCs from human lipoaspirate is now available. Click here to download the PDF version of the protocol.

Isolation and analysis according to various markers.

Expansion and differentiation of MSCs


Phenotyping of cultured MSCs

microRNA and gene expression profiling and services
Stem cell–specific miRNA analysis can be performed using miRXplore™ Microarray Kits and Services. Gene expression profiling services are offered with Agilent Whole Genome Microarrays.

Single-cell gene expression profiling SuperAmp™ Service*
for the amplification of RNA from only a few to 10,000 cells sorted by flow cytometry, laser capture microdissection, primary cells, or tissue biopsies.

For information on products for mouse stem cell research, please click here.


* In combination with the Microarray Service only.
