Abstract:
Mesenchymal stromal cells were isolated from the adipose tissue obtained during surgery for breast cancer and cultured under conditions of normal or low oxygen concentrations. In patients that had received a course of radiation and polychemotherapy prior to surgery, the proliferative potential of mesenchymal stromal cells was irreversibly disturbed. In patients receiving no therapy prior to surgery, the morphological, growth, phenotypic, and differentiation characteristics of mesenchymal stromal cells did not differ from the corresponding parameters of mesenchymal stromal cells from healthy donors. Culturing under hypoxic conditions increased adipogenic differentiation potencies of mesenchymal stromal cells from donors and patients.

Distinctive Features of Adult Stem Cells vs Cancer Stem Cells
Adult stem cells
Adult stem cells are tissue-specific; hence, they divide to develop the tissue from which they originate. One type of adult stem cell is the epithelial stem cell, which gives rise to the keratinocytes in the multiple layers of epithelial cells in the epidermis of the skin. Adult bone marrow has three distinct types of stem cells:...
