This study examined whether mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are stem cells originated from embryonic mesoderm, are able to differentiate into functional hepatocyte-like cells in vitro. MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow and umbilical cord blood, and the surface phenotype and the mesoderm

## Abstract Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reside under hypoxic conditions in vivo, between 4% and 7% oxygen. Differentiation of MSCs under hypoxic conditions results in inhibited osteogenesis, while chondrogenesis is unaffected. The reasons for these results may be associated with the inheren
## Abstract ## Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have drawn considerable attention as vehicles for cellβ or geneβbased therapies, yet various problems still exist for current gene delivery vectors. On the other hand, baculovirus has emerged as a novel gene therapy vector, but its transducti
## Abstract Since its osteoinductive capacity has been established, demineralized bone matrix is considered a suitable alternative to bone autograft in the healing of osseous defects. The mechanisms of bone formation induction are still not fully understood. In this study we assessed the effects of
## Abstract Polystyrene cellβculture plates modified with positively charged polyallylamine (PAAm) and negatively charged poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc) and unmodified plate were used for the culture of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to study the effect of surface electrostatic properties on their
## Abstract This study evaluated the osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), on tyrosineβderived polycarbonates copolymerized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to determine their potential as a scaffold for bone tissue engineering applications. The addition of PEG in the b
