Downregulation of APE1/Ref-1 Is Involved in the Senescence of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
5 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
The senescence of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) causes disruption of tissue and organ maintenance, and is thus an obstacle to stem cell-based therapies for disease. Although some researchers have studied changes in the characteristics of hMSCs (decreases in differentiation ability and self-renewal), comparing young and old ages, the mechanisms of stem cell senescence have not yet been defined. In this...
