Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Molecular Targets for Tissue Engineering
1 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent an adherent, fibroblast-like population present not only in the bone marrow, but in a number of tissues, including blood, adipose tissue, muscle, and dermis. Their extensive proliferation and transdifferentiation potential makes them best suited for tissue engineering applications. Identification of growth factors and signaling pathways involved in self-renewal and...
