Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising cell source for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In our lab, we found that MSC preparations from bone marrow of many different donors had a limited capacity of in vitro differentiation into osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages-a capacity claimed to be inherent to MSCs. The current study was designed to test the hypothesis that the amount of heparin used as anticoagulant during bone marrow harvest had an inhibitory influence on the in ...[more]
