Effect of platelet factors and thrombin on multiplication of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells cultured in low and high oxygen level in vitro
Background: In the bone marrow, hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells form a unique niche, in which oxygen tension is low. Hypoxia may have a role in maintaining stem cell capacity for self-renewal and multipotency. We have shown previously a positive influence of platelet-derived growth factors...
