A comparative analysis of the transcriptome and signal pathways in hepatic differentiation of human adipose mesenchymal stem cells

Abstract excerpt

The specific features of the plasticity of adult stem cells are largely unknown. Recently, we demonstrated the hepatic differentiation of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs). To identify the genes responsible for hepatic differentiation, we examined the gene expression profiles of AT-MSC-derived hepatocytes (AT-MSC-Hepa) using several microarray methods. The resulting sets of...
