Current Expansion Success of Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells
| Cell Type(s) | Expansion Fold | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| CD34+ GM-CFU | 12 and 20, respectively | Culture using a closed cell expansion chamber (3). |
| CD34+, CFU | 27 and 22, respectively | 7 days in serum-free culture (83). |
| CD34+ | IL-11 and G-CSF stimulated, created 80-fold greater yield than BM (31,68,71). | |
| CD34−/CD45− | 1015 | No loss of pluripotency (39). |
| Total MNC, CD34+, CFU-GM | 435.5, 32.7, and 21.7, respectively | 200 h culture in a rotating wall vessel bioreactor was used with serum containing media supplemented with low-dose recombinant human cytokines (43). |
| CD34+, CD45+, CFU | 3, 3, and 2.6, respectively | Serum-free, cytokine-free 3D cytomatrix (20). |
| CD34+, CD34+/CD38−, CFU-C | 250 | Expanded on a monolayer of human BM MSC with cytokines and serum (81). |
| MSC | 1000 | In culture with serum for 3 weeks (82). |
