Biologic approaches to enhance rotator cuff healing after injury

TL;DR: Use of growth factors, stem cell therapy, and other tissue-engineering means serve to augment classical surgical rotator cuff repair procedures, reflecting paucity of research in this field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of αSMA-labeled progenitor cell commitment identifies notch signaling as an important pathway in fracture healing

TL;DR: It is shown that modulation of Notch signaling may determine osteogenic potential of αSMA‐expressing progenitor cells during bone healing, and activating Notch signaled inhibited differentiation into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages in vitro and ectopic bone formation in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipose, Bone Marrow and Synovial Joint-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cartilage Repair.

TL;DR: The challenges associated with cartilage repair and regeneration using MSC-based cell therapies are explored and an overview of phenotype, biological activities, and functional properties for each MSC population is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concise Review: MicroRNA Function in Multipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

TL;DR: This review presents in detail miRNAs with overlapping effects (i.e., common target genes) and discusses future directions to deepen the understanding of miRNA biology in MSC.
Journal ArticleDOI

High Harvest Yield, High Expansion, and Phenotype Stability of CD146 Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from Whole Primitive Human Umbilical Cord Tissue

TL;DR: The remarkable stability of the phenotype represents a novel finding for human MSCs, from any source, and supports the use of these cells as highly accessible stromal cells for both basic studies and potentially therapeutic applications such as allogeneic clinical use for musculoskeletal disorders.

Multilineage Potential of Adult Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

TL;DR: Adult stem cells isolated from marrow aspirates of volunteer donors could be induced to differentiate exclusively into the adipocytic, chondrocytic, or osteocytic lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Adipose Tissue Is a Source of Multipotent Stem Cells

TL;DR: To confirm whether adipose tissue contains stem cells, the PLA population and multiple clonal isolates were analyzed using several molecular and biochemical approaches and PLA cells exhibited unique characteristics distinct from those seen in MSCs, including differences in CD marker profile and gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mesenchymal stem cells

TL;DR: The study of mesenchymal stem cells, whether isolated from embryos or adults, provides the basis for the emergence of a new therapeutic technology of self‐cell repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mesenchymal Stem Cells

TL;DR: The bone marrow contains multipotent MSC, which can be easily isolated and cultured in vitro, and the possibility of their clinical use in cell and gene therapy is analyzed.
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.
