Neuron-Like Differentiation of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent and give rise to distinctly differentiated cells from all three germ layers. Neuronal differentiation of MSC has great potential for cellular therapy. We examined whether the cluster of mechanically made, not neurosphere, could be differentiated into neuron-like cells by growth factors, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF),...
