Background: Stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood display mesenchymal multipotency and can differentiate into osteoblasts, chondroblasts and adipoblasts in vitro under defined stimuli. Although sheep have been used as experimental models for investigations on xenoreactivity after transplantation of stem cells isolated from human umbilical cord blood, the potential of ovine cord blood stem cells to differentiate has been examined to date.
Materials And Methods: Mononuclear cells from the placentoms of 3 lambs were isolated via density gradient centrifugation and cultivated.
