Regulation of human adipose-derived stromal cell osteogenic differentiation by insulin-like growth factor-1 and platelet-derived growth factor-alpha.
Plast Reconstr Surg. 2010; (1): 41-52
Human adipose-derived stromal cells possess a great potential for tissue engineering purposes. The authors' laboratory is interested in harnessing human adipose-derived stromal cells for skeletal tissue regeneration and identifying those factors that enhance human adipose-derived stromal cell osteogenic differentiation. The authors hypothesized that insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) would stimulate human adipose-derived stromal cell osteogenesis and that IGF would stimulate adipogenesis.
