Abstract excerpt
The ability of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) to differentiate into osteoblasts is being exploited in cell-based therapy for repair of bone defects. However, the phenotype of ex vivo cultured BMSCs predicting their bone-forming capacity is not known. Thus we employed DNA microarrays comparing...
