Bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells facilitate engineering of long-lasting functional vasculature
Abstract
Vascular tissue engineering requires a ready source of endothelial cells and perivascular cells. Here, we evaluated human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for use as vascular progenitor cells in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. hMSCs expressed a panel of smooth muscle markers in vitro including the cardiac/smooth muscle-specific transcription coactivator, myocardin. Cell-cell contact between endothelial cells and...
