Mesenchymal stem cells isolated from rats are frequently used for tissue engineering research. However, considerable differences have been identified between rat mesenchymal stem cells and those derived from humans, and no defined panel of markers currently exists for the isolation of these cells. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of cell sorting for CD29(+)/CD90(+) cells from rat adipose and bone marrow tissues on their differentiation and expression of stem cell-associated genes ...[more]
