Menstrual blood-derived stromal stem cells augment cd4+ t cells proliferation

ABSTRACT

Background: It is more than sixty years that the concept of the fetal allograft and immunological paradox of pregnancy was proposed and in this context, several regulatory networks and mechanisms have been introduced so far. It is now generally recognized that mesenchymal stem cells exert potent immunoregulatory activity. In this study, for the first time, the potential impact of Menstrual blood Stem Cells [MenSCs], as surrogate for endometrial stem cells, on proliferative capacity of CD4+ T cells was tested
