Provided herein is a placental product comprising an immunocompatible amniotic membrane. Such placental products can be cryopreserved and contain viable therapeutic cells after thawing. The placental product of the present invention is useful in treating a patient with a tissue injury (e.g. wound or burn) by applying the placental product to the injury. Similar application is useful with ligament and tendon repair and for engraftment procedures such as bone engraftment.

Various embodiments of the invention provide methods of treating diabetes and other glucose regulation disorders. In one embodiment, the method comprises removing L-cells from a donor, obtaining stem cells from a patient, and culturing the L-cells in the presence of the stem cells under conditions such that the stem cells differentiate into stem cell-derived L-cells (SCDLC). An amount of the SCDLC is introduced into the patient sufficient to cause a lowering of the patient's blood glucose level after ingestion of food. In another embodiment, the method comprises removing K-cells from a donor, obtaining stem cells from a patient, and culturing the K-cells in the presence of the stem cells under conditions such that the stem cells differentiate into stem cell-derived K-cells (SCDKC). An amount of the SCDKC is introduced into the patient sufficient to cause a lowering of the patient's blood glucose level after ingestion of food.

Provided herein are stimulated placental stem cells and methods of treating individuals having diseases or disorders of the circulatory system using stimulated placental cells. The invention also provides methods of inducing angiogenesis using such stimulated cells or populations of cells comprising such stimulated cells.

The present disclosure relates to compositions of ULSCs and/or conditioned media thereof. In particular, the disclosure relates to conditioned media containing therapeutic factors including growth factors, cytokines, chemokines and extra cellular matrix components.

[Summary]

The present invention relates to the establishment of a cell line having immune tolerance property using an optimal temperature profiling technique under a human body-like environment, and use thereof. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for preparing trophoblast cells consecutively secreting and expressing HLA-G proteins; a method for preparing stem cells consecutively secreting and expressing HLA-G proteins; stem cells consecutively secreting and expressing HLA-G proteins, prepared by the aforementioned preparation method; a method for preparing a culture medium of stem cells consecutively secreting and expressing HLA-G proteins; a culture medium of stem cells consecutively secreting and expressing HLA-G proteins, prepared by the aforementioned preparation method; and an anti-aging or antioxidant composition comprising the culture medium as an active ingredient.

The novel trophoblast cell line and the stem cell line established in the present invention can exhibit immune tolerance property as they consecutively secret and express HLA-G proteins, and the culture medium of the stem cells contains a large amount of proteins capable of recovering various physiological functions and extracellular vesicles, and thus, the novel cell line or a culture medium thereof can be effectively used in various industries such as medicines and cosmetics.

The present disclosure relates to a placenta-derived cell-conditioned medium for inducing dedifferentiation into induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cells and a method for inducing dedifferentiation using the same. When the placenta-derived cell-conditioned medium for inducing dedifferentiation according to the present disclosure is employed, personalized dedifferentiation stem cells can be stably established using a medium composed of human-derived products only. Provision of a human placenta-derived environment similarly represents an in vivo environment and allows the production of a cell therapy product without problems for clinical application.

The invention provides a method of producing and using extracellular vesicles (ECVs) derived from activated stromal cells for the treatment of certain disease and conditions. Specifically, ECVs derived from preactivated mesenchymal cells are effective in reducing cancer cell growth and metastasis as well as inducing tolerogenesis in immature dendritic cells. Additionally, ECVs derived from umbilical cord blood may be useful for immunosuppression and reduction of inflammation.

Noncultured Wharton's Jelly stem cells and methods of their purification, storage and use are provided.
