Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Aging and Osteoporotic Population
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
Because of their ability to self-renew and differentiate, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the in vivo source for replacing lost cells in high-turnover tissues during the life of an organism. MSCs have osteogenic potential and can be eligible for the repair and maintenance of the skeleton, thus they are very attractive for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches. However, many changes in their...
