Pathologic Bladder Microenvironment Attenuates Smooth Muscle Differentiation of Skin Derived Precursor Cells: Implications for Tissue Regeneration
Smooth muscle cell containing organs (bladder, heart, blood vessels) are damaged by a variety of pathological conditions necessitating surgery or organ replacement. Currently, regeneration of contractile tissues is hampered by lack of functional smooth muscle cells. Multipotent skin derived progenit...
