High Mobility Group Box 1 Protein Inhibits the Proliferation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Promotes Their Migration and Differentiation along Osteoblastic Pathway
4 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
Extracellular high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a novel cytokine that takes part in the processes of inflammation, tissue damage and regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult stem cells characterized by their inherently suppressive activities on inflammative and allo-immune reactions. In the present study, we have addressed whether HMGB1 could affect the biological properties of human bone marrow...
