Enhancement of Myogenic and Muscle Repair Capacities of Human Adipose–derived Stem Cells With Forced Expression of MyoD
7 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Muscle disorders such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) still need effective treatments, and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may constitute an attractive cell therapy alternative because they are multipotent and accessible in adult tissues. We have previously shown that human multipotent adipose-derived stem (hMADS) cells were able to restore dystrophin expression in the mdx mouse. The goal of this work was to...
