Abstract | The stem cells are promising for future cell-based therapy such as tissue engineering or regenerative medicine. Although Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs) are theoretically highly beneficial, there are various limitations on their use posed by cell regulations and ethical considerations. Therefore, adult stem cells are considered to be highly available with neither ethical nor immunoreactive considerations as long as they are of autologous tissue origin. Much of work has focused on the Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) isolated from bone marrow stroma, which have been shown to possess adipogenic, osteogenic, chondrogenic, myogenic and neurogenic potential in vitro. However bone marrow procurement is severely painful for patients and the harvested cells yields low number. |
