Short‐Term BMP‐2 Expression Is Sufficient for In Vivo Osteochondral Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
1 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Currently available murine models to evaluate mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation are based on cell injection at ectopic sites such as muscle or skin. Due to the importance of environmental factors on the differentiation capacities of stem cells in vivo, we investigated whether the peculiar synovial/cartilaginous environment may influence the lineage specificity of bone morphogenetic protein...
