## Background A hot new topic in medical treatment is the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in therapy. The low frequency of this subpopulation of stem cells in bone marrow (BM) necessitates their in vitro expansion prior to clinical use. We evaluated the effect of long term culture on the senesc
## Abstract hMSCs derived from bone marrow are useful as a speciesβspecific cell culture system for studying cell lineage differentiation and tissue remodeling. However, hMSCs usually have a short __in vitro__ life span due to replicative senescence. We therefore used a high dose of retroviral vect
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
