Abstract excerpt
In the past few years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have come into the limelight because of their multi-lineage stem cell potential, which retains some aspects of embryonic stem cells, and because of their characteristic immunoregulatory functions exerted on different immune effector cells. The regenerative and immunomodulatory potential of MSCs has been used to support hemopoietic stem cell engraftment; to...
