Expansion and characterization of bone marrow derived human mesenchymal stromal cells in serum-free conditions

Abstract Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) are gaining increasing importance in the field of regenerative medicine. Although therapeutic value of MSCs is now being established through many clinical trials, issues have been raised regarding their expansion as per regulatory guid...
