ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
How to obtain a sufficient number of cells is one of the key issues in the celltransplantation therapy, and studies have shown that stem cellproliferation can be promoted by reasonable stimulus.OBJECTIVE:
To investigate reduced glutathione effects on biological characteristics of human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells.METHODS:
The cells were divided into two groupsthe control group consisted of the normal human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells, and in the experimental group, human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells were treated with 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
At days 5, 7, 9, cells treated with 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione showed higher absorbance values than those in the control group (P<0.05). Flow cytometry showed reduced glutathione had no effects on CD29, CD44, CD45, CD105 expression. Real-time PCR results showed reduced glutathione was capable of promoting extracellular signal-regulated kinase mRNA expression (P<0.05). Findings from this study showed that 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione can promote the proliferation of human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells.
