Umbilical cord blood of neonates is a precious source for many fields of research because of distinct unique features combined with easy accessibility at the time of birth. The number of applications are vast with an emphasis in the field of stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine since cord blood contains relatively large numbers of pluripotent cells. This chapter provides a protocol for developing an autologous co-culture of endothelial-like cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from umbilical cord blood of premature born babies and describes an experimental setting to investigate inflammatory processes that are a cornerstone of pathophysiology in the developing organs of preterm born babies.
