Modulation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) by nigella sativa and trigona honey: an in vitro study
Maintenance of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) numbers is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration since adult stem cells are often limited in number, expansion capacity and lifespan. It is believed that certain types of foods are beneficial in the preservation and stimulation of stem c...

Maintenance of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) numbers is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration since adult stem cells are often limited in number, expansion capacity and lifespan. It is believed that certain types of foods are beneficial in the preservation and stimulation of stem cells throughout life. Black seeds and stingless bee honey are among the widely investigated functional food with general health promoting benefit. We aim to explore the proliferative, anti-apoptosis and anti-senescence effect of Nigella sativa and Trigona honey on BMMSC. Cell proliferation was evaluated using MTT assay. We performed flow cytometric analysis to verify stem cell surface markers while quantitative PCR was done to measure the relative expression of target genes.
