<h4>Objective</h4>Bone marrow-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSC/HPC) are critical to homeostasis and tissue repair. The aims of this study were to delineate the myelotoxicity of cigarette smoking (CS) in a murine model, to explore human adipose-derived stem cells (hASC) as a novel approach to mitigate this toxicity, and to identify key mediating factors for ASC activities.<h4>Methods</h4>C57BL/6 mice were exposed to CS with or without i.v. injection of regular or siRNA-transfe ...[more]
