Owing to its multiple differentiation abilities, the Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) holds the promise in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, and displays important clinical potential for cell therapy. The Immortalized Human Cord Blood Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (cbMSC-hTERT) retains MSC specific surface markers (CD29, CD73, CD105, CD44 and HLA-ABC) as well as its differentiation capacities into cells of the mesodermal lineage, such as osteoblasts and adipocytes. In addition, karyotype analysis and CGH analysis show no chromosomal abnormality nor genomic deletion or amplifications, making this cell line suitable for stem cell research and translational study.
Similarly, the Immortalized Human Cord Blood Mesenchymal Stromal Cells with RFP (cbMSC-hTERT-RFP; Cat. T0017) exhibits comparable characteristics as cbMSC-hTERT with the addition of red fluorescent protein labelling. Transplantation of cbMSC-hTERT-RFP into the rat model with TBI demonstrates that these cells are readily attracted to the injury area and thus provides a valuable cell-based tool for stem cell transplantation and in vivo detection.

Notes
1. Visually examine the packaging containers for signs of leakage or breakage. 2. Immediately transfer frozen cells from dry ice packaging to a temperature below -130?, preferably in liquid nitrogen vapor phase storage, until ready for use. To ensure the highest level of viability, thaw the vial and initiate culture as soon as possible upon receipt. If continued storage is desired, the vial should only be stored below -130? or in liquid nitrogen vapor phase. Do not store at -70?, as it will result in loss of viability.

Propagation
Use of PriCoatTMT25 Flasks (G299) or Applied Cell Extracellular Matrix (G422) is required for cell adhesion to the culture vessels. Grow cells inECM-coated culture vessels unless otherwise specified in the Propagation Requirements below.The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow III medium available at abm, Cat. No. TM003. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (TM999)* to a final concentration of 20%, recombinant bFGF (Z101455) to a final concentration of 4ng/ml and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution (G255) to a final concentration of 1%.Change media every 2-3 days.Carbon dioxide (CO2): 5%, Temperature: 37.0°C.* Do not use heat-inactivated FBS for cell culture unless specified otherwise.
Cryopreservation
Cryopreservation Medium (TM024), or complete growth media with 10% DMSO.
Quality Control
1) RT-PCR was used to confirm the expression of the hTERT transgene in the immortalized cells; 2) TRAP assay was performed to determine the telomerase activity; 3) Flow cytometry was used to detect surface markers such as CD29, CD73, CD105, CD44 and HLA-ABC; 4) G-banding was used for karyotype analysis; 5) Tumuorigenicity assay was performed to evaluate the cells tumorigenic potential.

Thawing Protocol
1. Thaw cells quickly in a 37? water bath while agitating gently (maximum 2 minutes). The vial cap should be kept above the water level to minimize the risk of contamination. 2. Decontaminate the vial by spraying and wiping the exterior of the vial with 70% ethanol. From this point onwards, all operations should be strictly carried out inside a biological safety cabinet using aseptic conditions. 3. Transfer the cell suspension into a 15ml sterile conical tube containing 5ml of pre-warmed, complete growth media. Centrifuge cells at 125xg for 5-7 minutes. 4. Aspirate the supernatant without disturbing the cell pellet. Re-suspend the cell pellet in the recommended pre-warmed, complete growth media and dispense into a T25 culture flask. 5. Incubate the cells at the recommended conditions.
Subculture Protocol
Volumes given below are for a T75 flask; proportionally increase or decrease the volume as required per culture vessel size. Subculture cells once the culture vessel is 80% confluent. 1. Aspirate the culture media, and add 2-3ml of pre-warmed 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA to the culture vessel. 2. Observe the cells under a microscope to confirm detachment (typically within 2-10 minutes). Cells that are difficult to detach can be put in 37?, for several minutes to facilitate detachment. 3. Neutralize Trypsin-EDTA by adding an equal volume of the complete growth media into the culture vessel. 4. Transfer the culture suspension into a sterile centrifuge tube, and centrifuge at 125xg for 5 minutes. The actual centrifuge duration and speed may vary depending on the cell type. 5. Aspirate the supernatant, and re-suspend the pellet with pre-warmed fresh complete growth media. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels, as desired. 6. Incubate the cells at the recommended conditions.
