Purification and Culture of Human Blood Vessel–Associated Progenitor Cells

Abstract excerpt

Multilineage progenitor cells, diversely designated as MSC, MAPC, or MDSC, have been previously extracted from long-term cultures of fetal and adult organs (e.g., bone marrow, brain, lung, pancreas, muscle, adipose tissue, and several others). The identity and location, within native tissues, of these elusive stem cells are described here. Subsets of endothelial cells and pericytes, which participate in the...
