20130203166 | STIMULATION OF MULTIPOTENCY OF MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS BY CHEMOKINE CCL5 - Methods of stimulating multipotency, proliferation and differentiation of isolated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which permit more effective differentiation and integration of such cells into host tissues. The method includes providing an in vitro cell population of MSCs and administering CCL5 chemokine. Preferably CCL is administered in an amount sufficient to induce expression of one or more multipotency related genes selected from the group consisting of OCT3/4, NANOG, SOX 2, KLF4, and SOX9. | 08-08-2013 |
