Colonic vs bone marrow MSC
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We found that mesenchymal stem cells isolated from colonic tissue express significantly increased expression of Ptgs2 or cox-2 compared to that of mesenchymal stem cells isolated from the bone marrow, one of the most common tissues from which this cell type is derived. We hypothesized that the localization of these cells in the colon exposes them to specific environmental factors that induce and/or maintain increased constitutive levels of cox-2 uniquely in this cell type. In order to identify possible candidate molecules regulating cox-2 in these cells, we decided to compare the transcriptomes of colonic mesenchymal stem cells and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
