Chondrogenesis of adult stem cells from adipose tissue and bone marrow: induction by growth factors and cartilage-derived matrix.

Caplan, AI; Diekman, BO; Guilak, Farshid; Lennon, DP; Rowland, CR (Tissue Eng Part A, 2010-02)

OBJECTIVES: Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells with potential for use in cartilage tissue engineering. We hypothesized that these cells ...

Implant healing in experimental animal models of diabetes.

Klitzman, Bruce; Le, NN; Levinson, H; Rose, MB (J Diabetes Sci Technol, 2011-05-01)

Diabetes mellitus is becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. Additionally, there is an increasing number of patients receiving implantable devices such as glucose sensors and orthopedic implants. Thus, it is likely that ...

Tissue engraftment of hypoxic-preconditioned adipose-derived stem cells improves flap viability.

Erdmann, D; Hollenbeck, ST; Klitzman, Bruce; Komatsu, I; Senghaas, A; Zhang, Y (Wound Repair Regen, 2012-11)

Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have the ability to release multiple growth factors in response to hypoxia. In this study, we investigated the potential of ASCs to prevent tissue ischemia. We found conditioned media from ...
