Abstract:
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) are a group of cells with the capability of self-renewal and potential of multilineage differentiation. It was reported that some traditional Chinese medicines and their extract have the potential to induce BMSC differentiate into multiple cells. For example, notoginse nosides can induce BMSC differentiate into neurons and myocytes, naringin can induce BMSC differentiate into osteoblast, youguiyin-containing rabbit serum can induce BMSC differentiate into chondrocyte. This article reviews some progresses of this area in recent years.
