We have examined the effects of BMP-2 on the expression of bone matrix proteins in both human bone marrow stromal cells (HBMSC) and human osteoblasts (HOB) and their proliferation and mineralization. Both HBMSC and HOB express BMP-2/-4 type I and type II receptors. Treatment of these two cell types

Glucocorticoids inhibit the proliferation, but induce the differentiation, of bone marrow stromal cells into osteoblast-like cells. The mechanisms, however, are still conjectural. Since insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) have profound effects on osteoblast growth and differentiation, it is possible
## Abstract ## Objective To compare the chondrogenic potential of human bone marrowβderived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) and adipose tissueβderived stromal cells (ATSC), because the availability of an unlimited cell source replacing human chondrocytes could be strongly beneficial for cell therapy
