## Abstract Differentiation of stem cells is tightly regulated by the microenvironment which is mainly composed of nonparenchymal cells. Herein, we investigated effect of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in different states on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation. Rat HSCs were isolated and s
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
