METHOD OF ASSESSING WOUND HEALING POTENCY OF A MESENCHYMAL STEM POPULATION AND RELATED METHODS OF SELECTING MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS AND IDENTIFYING TISSUE AS STARTING MATERIAL FOR PRODUCING A MESENCHYMAL STEM CELL POPULATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of assessing the wound healing potency of a mesenchymal stem cell population. In addition, the present invention concerns a method of selecting a mesenchymal stem cell population for producing a stem cell population under cGMP conditions and a method of selecting a mesenchymal stem cell population for producing a stem cell population for subsequent pharmaceutical administration. Further, the present invention relates to a method of selecting a mesenchymal stem cell population for generating a master cell bank and to a method of identifying a tissue suitable as starting material for producing a mesenchymal stem cell population for pharmaceutical use.
