Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Express Neural Genes, Suggesting a Neural Predisposition
1 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
Because of their unique attributes of plasticity and accessibility, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may find use for therapy of neurodegenerative disorders. Our previous studies of adult human MSCs demonstrated that these cells express an extensive assortment of neural genes at a low but clearly detectable level. Here, we report expression of 12 neural genes, 8 genes related to the...
