Conservation of genetic resources is an important way to protect endangered species. At present, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been isolated from the bone marrow and umbilical cords of giant pandas. However, the types and quantities of preserved cell resources were rare and limited, and none of MSCs was derived from female reproductive organs. Here, we first isolated MSCs from the endometrium of giant panda. These cells showed fibroblast morphology and expressed Sox2, Klf4, Thy1, CD73, CD105, CD44, CD49f, and CD105...
