23 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
In Brief Study Design. To demonstrate the existence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in ligamentum flavum (LF) and their pathogenic role in LF hypertrophy. Objective. To isolate and characterize LF-derived MSCs and their response to transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) and trichostatin A (TSA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi).
