Adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Tissue Engineering
The identification of multipotential mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult human tissues such as bone marrow and connective tissues has provided exciting prospects for cell-based tissue engineering and regeneration. This review article focuses on the biology of MSCs, their differentiation potentials in vitro and in vivo, and their application in tissue engineering...
متن کاملUniversal patterns of stem cell fate in cycling adult tissues.
In cycling tissues that exhibit high turnover, tissue maintenance and repair are coordinated by stem cells. But, how frequently stem cells are replaced following differentiation, aging or injury remains unclear. By drawing together the results of recent lineage-tracing studies, we propose that tissue stem cells are routinely lost and replaced in a stochastic manner. We show that stem cell repla...
متن کاملEthics of Tissue and Stem Cell Transplantation
Tissue and cell transplantation are regarded as a popular procedure in clinical sciences, prospecting a new horizon for several incurable diseases. Along with its usefulness, many ethical concerns accompany this development. The ethical issue of organ transplant is unique to the source used which includes: living related, living unrelated, cadaveric, and xenotransplant. Obtaining organs has a s...
متن کاملAdult stem cell lineage tracing and deep tissue imaging
Lineage tracing is a widely used method for understanding cellular dynamics in multicellular organisms during processes such as development, adult tissue maintenance, injury repair and tumorigenesis. Advances in tracing or tracking methods, from light microscopy-based live cell tracking to fluorescent label-tracing with two-photon microscopy, together with emerging tissue clearing strategies an...
متن کاملAdult mesenchymal stem cells and cell-based tissue engineering
The identification of multipotential mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult human tissues, including bone marrow stroma and a number of connective tissues, has provided exciting prospects for cell-based tissue engineering and regeneration. This review focuses on the biology of MSCs, including their differentiation potentials in vitro and in vivo, and the application of MSCs in tissue ...
