METHOD FOR DIFFERENTIATING ADULT STEM CELLS INTO SCHWANN CELLS USING AN ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for differentiating adult stem cells into schwann cells is provided to effectively differentiate adult stem cells into schwann cells without an expensive differentiation medium.;CONSTITUTION: A method for differentiating adult stem cells into schwann cells using an electromagnetic field comprises the steps positioning the adult stem cells in the electromagnetic field at a frequency of 1-200 Hz; and culturing the adult stem cells. The intensity of the electromagnetic field is 0.5-2 mT. The culturing comprises the steps of: culturing the adult stem cells in an alpha-MEM medium containing beta-mercaptoethanol for 12-36 hours; culturing the adult stem cells in an alpha-MEM medium containing trans-retinoic acid for 60-82 hours; and culturing the adult stem cells in an alpha-MEM medium containing forskolin for 7-14 days.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013
