The invention relates to the discovery that the proliferation and survival of pancreatic progenitor cells can be enhanced by contacting the cells with, (1) a caspase inhibitor sufficient to reduce apoptosis in the pancreatic endocrine cells; and, (2) a growth factor in an amount sufficient to increase the level of activated Akt in the pancreatic endocrine cells.

Method of improving cell proliferation of pancreatic progenitor cells in a pancreatic cell culture

Provided herein are methods of treating individuals having diseases or disorders of the circulatory system, using placental cells, e.g., the placental stem cells and placental multipotent cells (PDACs) described herein, and populations of such placental cells. The invention also provides methods of angiogenesis using such cells or populations of cells comprising such cells.

Angiogenesis using placental stem cells

Provided herein are novel angiogenic cells from amnion, referred to as amnion derived adherent cells, and populations of, and compositions comprising, such cells. Further provided herein are methods of obtaining such cells and methods of using the cells in the treatment of individuals.

Amnion derived adherent cells

Methods of treating individuals having sarcoidosis or a sarcoidosis-related disease or disorder using placental cells are described. Also describe are kits comprising placental stem cells or a composition thereof that can be used in methods of treating sarcoidosis or a sarcoidosis-related disease or disorder.
