Fetal bone cells potential use for tissue engineering
Published in Blood Weekly, March 17th, 2005
According to recently published research from Switzerland, "We envision the use of human fetal bone cells for engineered regeneration of adult skeletal tissue. A description of their cellular function is then necessary.
"To our knowledge, there is no description of human primary fetal bone cells treated with differentiation factors. The characterization of fetal bone cells is particularly important as the pattern of secreted proteins from osteoblasts has been shown to change during aging."
"In the first part of this work," wrote M.O. Montjovent and coworkers, "human...
