Electromagnetic fields (EMF) have been shown to exert beneficial effects on cartilage tissue. Nowadays, differentiated human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are discussed as an alternative approach for cartilage repair. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the impact of EMF on hMSCs during

## Abstract Bone marrowβderived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent, selfβrenewing, mesodermalβorigin stem cells that are sequestered in the endosteal compartment. MSC are maintained in a relative state of quiescence in vivo but in response to a variety of physiological and pathological st
## Abstract Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) expanded with and without fibroblast growth factor (FGF) supplementation were compared with respect to their proliferation rate, ability to differentiate along the chondrogenic pathway in vitro, and their gene expression profiles. hMSCs expanded in F
## Abstract Copper plays important functional roles in bone metabolism and turnover. It is known that it is essential for normal growth and development of the skeleton in humans and in animals. Although at present the exact role that copper plays in bone metabolism is unknown, bone abnormalities ar
