Ex vivo expansion of cord blood-derived endothelial cells using a novel xeno-free culture media

摘要

Aim:Endothelial cells (ECs), isolated from peripheral blood (PB), bone marrow (BM) and cord blood (CB), are limited in numbers and expansion has had limited success. We used a novel serum-free medium (EndoGo) to evaluate effects on ex vivo expansion of CB-derived ECs.
