Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the differentiation potential of two populations of muscle-derived cells (CD56- and CD56+) towards chondrogenic phenotype in alginate beads culture and to compare the effect of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFbeta1) on the differentiation process in these populations. METHODS: Muscle CD56- and CD56+ cells were cultured in alginate beads, in a chondrogenic...
