The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), a major component of extracellular matrices, and
cell surface receptors of HA have been proposed to have pivotal roles in cell proliferation …

CD44 is an adhesion molecule that varies in size due to glycosylation and insertion of so-
called variant exon products. The CD44 standard isoform (CD44s) is highly expressed in …

Defining the cell surface proteome has profound importance for understanding cell
differentiation and cell–cell interactions, as well as numerous pathogenic abnormalities …

Osteoporosis is a complex human disease that results in increased susceptibility to fragility
fractures. It can be phenotypically characterized using several traits, including bone mineral …

Although many previous reports have examined the function of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in
the migration and proliferation of various cell types, the role of the actin cytoskeleton in …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are pluripotent cells isolated from the bone marrow and
various other organs. They are able to proliferate and self‐renew, as well as to give rise to …

Synovium-derived stem cell (SDSC) is one of valuable sources for cartilage regeneration.
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was reported to augment the differentiation potential of …

Abstract Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) migrate via the bloodstream to sites
of injury and are possibly attracted by inflammatory factors. As a proinflammatory mediator …

Regenerative medicine is a fast growing multidisciplinary field aiming at the regeneration or
replacement of damaged cells, tissues, or organs. Adult multipotent mesenchymal stromal …

A comprehensive analysis of the membrane proteome is essential to explain the biology of
multipotent stromal cells and identify reliable protein biomarkers for the isolation as well as …
