Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Renewing Osteoprogenitors in Bone Marrow Sinusoids Can Organize a Hematopoietic Microenvironment

TL;DR: It is shown that MCAM/CD146-expressing, subendothelial cells in human BM stroma are capable of transferring, upon transplantation, the HME to heterotopic sites, coincident with the establishment of identical subendOThelial cells within a miniature bone organ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Revisiting History, Concepts, and Assays

TL;DR: The experimental origin of the concept of the population(s) referred to as mesenchymal stem cells and the experimental framework required to assess their stemness and function are revisited.
Journal ArticleDOI

MT1-MMP-Deficient Mice Develop Dwarfism, Osteopenia, Arthritis, and Connective Tissue Disease due to Inadequate Collagen Turnover

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate the pivotal function of MT1-MMP in connective tissue metabolism, and illustrate that modeling of the soft connective tissues matrix by resident cells is essential for the development and maintenance of the hard tissues of the skeleton.
Journal ArticleDOI

The meaning, the sense and the significance: translating the science of mesenchymal stem cells into medicine

TL;DR: Significant ambiguities still plague the field regarding the nature, identity, function, mode of isolation and experimental handling of MSCs, which have a major impact on their envisioned therapeutic use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stem cells in tissue engineering.

TL;DR: The identification and isolation of stem cells from a number of tissues provides appropriate targets for prospective gene therapies and has the potential to significantly alter the perspective of tissue engineering.
