Adult bone marrow-derived cells trans-differentiating into insulin-producing cells for the treatment of type I diabetes

Recent findings suggest that bone marrow (BM) cells have the capacity to differentiate into a variety of cell types including endocrine cells of the pancreas. We report that BM derived…

Characterization and Expression Analysis of Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Human Bone Marrow and Adipose Tissue

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), that have been reported to be present in bone marrow, adipose tissues, dermis, muscles and peripheral blood, have the potential to differentiate along different lineages…

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induce angiogenesis and attenuate the remodeling of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Independent of the severity of coronary artery disease, diabetic patients have an increased risk of developing heart failure. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by microvascular pathologies and interstitial fibrosis. Mesenchymal…
