Characteristics of Stem Cells Derived from the Degenerated Human Intervertebral Disc Cartilage Endplate
18 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult tissues are an important candidate for cell-based therapies and regenerative medicine due to their multipotential differentiation capability. MSCs have been identified in many adult tissues but have not reported in the human intervertebral disc cartilage endplate (CEP). The initial purpose of this study was to determine whether MSCs exist in the degenerated human...
