Next, we stud-ied some parameters, such as the age of mothers and the weight of newborns, which can influence the qual-ity and the quantity of CD34+ cells from CB. RESULTS: We found that the percentage of apoptotic cells was high in CB in comparison to PAPB (PAPB: 4.6% ± 2.6% vs CB: 53.4% ± 5.2%, P < 0.001). In CB, the weight of newborn and the age of the mother have the influence on CD34+ cells. The follow-up of Ag CD133in the ISHAGE double platform protocol in association with CD45, CD34 and the 7’AAD shows an equal rate between the two cell populations CD133+CD45+CD34+ high and CD34+CD45+ high with a higher percentage. So, is the inclusion of Ac CD133 necessary in the pres-ent panel included in the ISHAGE methodflLast part, we showed a signif icant presence of interferon γ in CB in comparison to PAPB, the annexin showing the high number of apoptotic cells in CB. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that many different obstetric factors must be taken into account when processing and cryo-banking umbilical CB units for transplantation.展开更多
