Following the identification of bone marrow multipotent cells that could adhere to plastic and differentiate along numerous mesenchymal lineages in vitro, a considerable effort has been invested in characterizing and expanding these cells, which are now called ''mesenchymal stem cells'' (MSCs), in v
## Abstract The use of exogenous scaffolds to engineer bone tissue faces several drawbacks including insufficient biological activity, potential immunogenicity, elevated inflammatory reaction, fluctuating degradation rate, and low cellβattachment efficiency. To circumvent these limitations, we soug
