Abstract
A method for obtaining a plurality of pluripotent adult olfactory stem cells (APOSCs) includes isolating the APOSCs, culturing the isolated APOSCs in a sphere culture medium, and collecting the cultured APOSCs that express Bmi-1 (B-lymphoma moloney murine leukemia virus insertion region-1), Oct-4 (Octamer-binding transcription factor 4), Sox-2 (Sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box 2), Nanog, SSEA-4 (Stage-specific embryonic antigen-4), ki67, c-Myc, KLF-4 (Kruppel Like Factor 4), K14 (Cytokeratin 14) and ICAM-1 (Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1).
