Icaritin, an Exogenous Phytomolecule, Enhances Osteogenesis but Not Angiogenesis—An In Vitro Efficacy Study
We found that Icaritin, an intestinal metabolite of Epimedium-derived flavonoids (EF) enhanced osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) only under osteogenic induction conditions. We also demonstrated its effect on inhibition of adipogenic differentiation of MSCs. Unlike the fin...
