Isolation and Characterization of Mesoangioblasts from Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Muscle Biopsies
30 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is the third most frequent inherited muscle disease. Because in FSHD patients the coexistence of affected and unaffected muscles is common, myoblasts expanded from unaffected FSHD muscles have been proposed as suitable tools for autologous cell transplantation. Mesoangioblasts are a new class of adult stem cells of mesodermal origin, potentially useful for the...
