In The Name of God Stem Cell Identification Nozad H. Stem cell workshop Stem cell Research center Tabriz medical university
Stem Cell Characteristics ‘Blank cells’ (unspecialized) 2.Capable of dividing and renewing themselves for long periods of time (proliferation and self renewal) 3. Have the potential to give rise to specialized cell types (differentiation) 4. Plasticity and Cell based therapies 5. Very low percentage available(0.01-0.03%)
Extracellular matrix and Basement membrane Cell-cell interactions Cytokines
How we can identify Stem cells • In vitro single cell colony assay • Single cell PCR , looking for upregulation and downregulation of lineage related genes • In Vivo assay( Stem cell Transplantation)
Sorting single cell stem cell to evaluate the lineage potential Single stem cell OP9 cell line Analysis Co-cultures OP9DL1 cell line For 3 to 5 weeks
HSC Transplantation assay Blood, 2009, 113:3453-60

Identifying mesenchymal stem cell 1. A heterogeneous population, mixed population of fibroblast-like plastic-adherent cells 2. differentiate into a range of mature connective tissue cell types . 3. MSCs have been isolated from skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, deciduous teeth, 4. No surface antigen individually, or in combination, has been unified as a “supreme” marker 5. A supportive role to HSCs during hematopoiesis. 6. expressed markers on MSC depending of the source of MSCs 7. MSC do not express haematopoieticand endothelial cell markers
Neural Stem cell 1. Express CD133 2. Express low level of CD24 and PNA(peanut agglotinin in SVZ mic 3. CXCR4, FGF R4 , BMI-1, Brg1, FABP7, Nestin 3. Combination of this marker by Nestin gene expression is the best NSCs
Neural stem cell Nestin, Sox2
Inducing a "forced" expression of specific genes(Oct3/4, Sox2, Klf4 and cMyc) in somatic cells
