Stabilization of cellular properties and differentiation mutilpotential of human mesenchymal stem cells transduced with hTERT gene in a long‐term culture
20 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are promising candidates for cell therapy and tissue engineering. The life span of hMSCs during in vitro culture is limited. Human telomerase catalytic subunit (hTERT) gene transduction can prolong the life span of hMSCs and maintain their potential of osteogenic differentiation. We established a line of hMSCs transduced with exogenous hTERT (hTERT-hMSCs) and...
