Characteristics of hematopoietic stem cells of umbilical cord blood

Abstract: Umbilical cord blood collected from the postpartum placenta and cord is a rich source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and is an alternative to bone marrow transplantation. In this review we wanted to describe the differences (in phenotype, cytokine production, quantity and quality of cells) between stem cells from umbilical cord blood, bone marrow and peripheral blood. HSCs present in cord blood are more primitive than their counterparts in bone marrow or peripheral blood, and have several advantages includ… Show more

“…Moreover, cord blood differs from bone marrow and peripheral blood with respect to the number of colony forming cells. Cord blood contains 8.000 BFU-E forming cells, between 13.000 and 24.000 CFU-GM and between 1.000 and 10.000 CFU-GEMM forming cells in 1 ml of blood which is 3 and 15 times more than the numbers in marrow and peripheral blood, respectively [20,27,28]. The number of cells expressing the surface antigen CD34 in cord blood lies between 0.02 and 1.43%, which is close to the values in bone marrow cells (0.5-5%) but different from peripheral blood (<0.01%) [20,29].…”

“…Due to their more naïve characteristics and their availability, HSCs from cord blood are widely used in research. However, there are some differences compared to peripheral blood and bone marrow such as differences in the composition, number and properties of the cells [20][21][22][23][24]. CD34 +…”

“…These HSC are also present in umbilical cord blood. 1 Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB) is a good source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) that is equivalent to those found in the bone marrow. After delivery, umbilical cord blood can be collected and cryopreserved which can be used later.…”
