Comprehensive Analysis of Chemotactic Factors for Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells
1 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
To understand which growth factors/cytokines can affect migration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to injured tissues, we compared the effects of many (26) growth factors/cytokines on the migration activity of rabbit and human MSCs using a microchemotaxis chamber. Among them, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB, PDGF-AB, epidermal growth factor (EGF), HB-EGF, transforming growth factor (TGF-alpha), insulin...
