Since the replacement of the hematopoietic system became feasible through bone marrow (BM) transplantation, the idea of how to replace other organs of the body has been in the forefront of medical research. Scientists have been searching for the ideal stem cell that could be manipulated to different
## Background: Interactions between bone marrow-derived cytokines, growth factors, and tumors play a critical role in both the homing of tumors to the bone and the development of bone metastasis. bone is a storehouse of latent growth factors produced by stromal cells and osteoblasts that, when acti
