## Abstract Directing differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into specific cell types using an easy and reproducible protocol is a prerequisite for the clinical use of hESCs in regenerative‐medicine procedures. Here, we report a protocol for directing the differentiation of hESCs int
## Abstract Human embryonic stem (hES) cells have the capacities to propagate for extended periods and to differentiate into cell types from all three germ layers both in vitro and in vivo. These characteristics of self‐renewal and pluripotency enable hES cells having the potential to provide an un
Human adult bone marrow-derived skeletal stem cells a.k.a mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have been shown to be precursors of several different cellular lineages, including osteoblast, chondrocyte, myoblast, adipocyte, and fibroblast. Several studies have shown that cooperation between transforming g
## Abstract Adipogenesis plays a key role in the pathogenesis of obesity. It begins with the commitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to the adipocyte lineage, followed by terminal differentiation of preadipocytes to mature adipocytes. A critical, but poorly understood, component of adipogenesis
