Clinical Application and Mechanism of Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells in the Treatment of Ischemic Bowel Disease

Ischemic bowel disease, also known as ischemic bowel disease (IBD), is a type of disease that causes the blood supply to a certain intestinal segment to be reduced or stopped by various reasons such as hypovolemia, shock or recent abdominal surgery, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the intestinal wall, and causing a series of pathological changes in the intestine. Human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (HUCB-MNC) can be economically and conveniently isolated from human cord blood. The HUCB-MNC obtained from the isolation of human umbilical cord blood contains a variety of stem cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells, endothelial stem cells, etc. A number of previous studies have confirmed that HUCB-MNC can improve the occurrence of ischemic bowel disease through immunomodulatory and tissue repair. These characteristics make HUCB-MNC a cell with great potential to treat ischemic diseases.
