TLDR
The set of data leads to the conclusion that bone marrow MSCs constitute a specific adult tissue stem cell population and account for the versatility of the mechanisms of injured tissue repair.
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types including osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. In this review, Dr. Pierre Charbord discusses the historical emergence of the concept of bone marrow MSCs and their possible risks and benefits within the context of future clinical applications.

Direct 3D bioprinting of perfusable vascular constructs using a blend bioink

TL;DR: A versatile 3D bioprinting strategy that employs biomimetic biomaterials and an advanced extrusion system to deposit perfusable vascular structures with highly ordered arrangements in a single-step process, superior to conventional microfabrication or sacrificial templating approaches for fabrication of the perfusable vasculature.

Comparative Analysis of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Bone Marrow, Adipose Tissue, and Umbilical Cord Blood as Sources of Cell Therapy

TL;DR: It is found that recombinant Ang-1 as potential soluble paracrine factor or its small interference RNA (siRNA) was responsible for this beneficial effect in part by preventing inflammation.

MicroRNA control of bone formation and homeostasis

TL;DR: Characterization of miRNAs that operate through tissue-specific transcription factors in osteoblast and osteoclast lineage cells, as well as intricate feedforward and reverse loops, has provided novel insights into the supervision of signaling pathways and regulatory networks controlling normal bone formation and turnover.

Induction of pluripotent stem cells from mouse embryonic and adult fibroblast cultures by defined factors.

TL;DR: Induction of pluripotent stem cells from mouse embryonic or adult fibroblasts by introducing four factors, Oct3/4, Sox2, c-Myc, and Klf4, under ES cell culture conditions is demonstrated and iPS cells, designated iPS, exhibit the morphology and growth properties of ES cells and express ES cell marker genes.

Pluripotency of mesenchymal stem cells derived from adult marrow

TL;DR: It is reported here that cells co-purifying with mesenchymal stem cells—termed here multipotent adult progenitor cells or MAPCs—differentiate, at the single cell level, not only into meschymal cells, but also cells with visceral mesoderm, neuroectoderm and endoderm characteristics in vitro.
