## Abstract ## Objective To compare the chondrogenic potential of human bone marrowโderived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) and adipose tissueโderived stromal cells (ATSC), because the availability of an unlimited cell source replacing human chondrocytes could be strongly beneficial for cell therapy
## Abstract Osteogenic cells differentiated from bone marrowโderived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) hold much promise in bone tissue engineering and reconstructive surgery. There is a dire need for wellโdefined and efficient protocols to promote the osteogenesis of __ex vivo__ cultured MSC. Hence,
We investigated the effects of the time course of addition of osteogenic supplements dexamethasone, โค-glycerolphosphate, and L-ascorbic acid to rat marrow stromal cells, and the exposure time on the proliferation and differentiation of the cells. It was the goal of these experiments to determine the
