A Novel Regulatory Role for Stromal-derived Factor-1 Signaling in Bone Morphogenic Protein-2 Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal C2C12 Cells
18 Apr 2007
Abstract excerpt
Stromal-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) is a chemokine with important functions in development and postnatal tissue homeostasis. SDF-1 signaling via the G-protein-coupled receptor CXCR4 regulates the recruitment of stem and precursor cells to support tissue-specific repair or regeneration. In this study we examined the contribution of SDF-1 signaling to osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal C2C12 cells induced by...
