Basic research progress of human mesenchymal stem cells in the field of reproductive medicine
The rapid development of reproductive medicine has made outstanding contribution to the solution of population problem,but it still cannot satisfy all couples to become"complete parents"at the genetic level.As research progressed of regenerative medicine,it is found that the stem cells have the characteristics of promoting endogenous repair,improving oxidative stress level,regulating immune microenvironment,and so on.Therefore,the transplantation of stem cells is considered to be a new and effective therapy to restore the damaged reproductive function.The mesenchymal stem cells are considered as an ideal source for transplantation therapy because of the characteristics of wide source,easy acquisition and low immunogenicity.Furthermore,it has been proven effective in a large number of scientific and clinical researches in the reproductive field.This paper reviews the basic research progress on all kinds of mesenchymal stem cells in the field of reproductive medicine at home and abroad.
