Mechanisms Underlying the Osteo- and Adipo-Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are considered a promising cell source for regenerative medicine, because they have the potential to differentiate into a variety of lineages among which the mesoderm-derived lineages such adipo- or osteogenesis are investigated best. Human MSCs can be harvested in reasonable to large amounts from several parts of the patient's body and due to this possible autologous origin,...
