Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been described as being able to give rise to several
quite different mesenchymal cell phenotypes. However, the ability to differentiate is not the …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are partially defined by their ability to differentiate into
tissues including bone, cartilage and adipose in vitro, but it is their trophic, paracrine and …

Now that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to be perivascular in vivo, the
existing traditional view that focuses on the multipotent differentiation capacity of these cells …

Cell (ISCT MSC) committee offers a position statement to clarify the nomenclature of …

Aside from the well-established self-renewal and multipotent differentiation properties,
mesenchymal stem cells exhibit both immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory roles in …

Tissue regeneration from transplanted mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) either through
transdifferentiation or cell fusion was originally proposed as the principal mechanism …
