Characterization of human mesenchymal stem cells from ewing sarcoma patients. Pathogenetic implications.

<h4>Background</h4>Ewing Sarcoma (EWS) is a mesenchymal-derived tumor that generally arises in bone and soft tissue. Intensive research regarding the pathogenesis of EWS has been insufficient to pinpoint the early events of Ewing sarcomagenesis. However, the Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) i...
