In accordance with many disease occurrences, stem cell research has become an important study. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) is one of representative materials of stem cell research. MSCs are multipotent progenitor cells that can differentiate into various cell types including osteocytes, adipocytes, chondrocytes, myocytes, stromal cells and neurons. MSCs have been derived from bone marrow, umbilical cord, umbilical cord blood, fat, and other body organs. Among them, human inferior turbinate and nasal septal cartilages are good materials for extraction of MSCs. For extraction of MSCs, we used MSC extraction protocol from ARCO sensorineural laboratory. In order to identified extracted MSCs, Immunofluorescence to CD90 and CD73 (or CD105) cell-surface markers of MSCs was performed using the MSC phenotyping kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany). hMSCs derived from inferior turbinate and nasal septal cartilage were shown positive results. Further study, more studies need to comparative analysis of differentiated target cells from our MSCs.
