    • Generation of mesenchymal cell lines derived from aged donors 

      Piñeiro-Ramil, María; Sanjurjo-Rodríguez, Clara; Rodríguez-Fernández, Silvia; Castro Viñuelas, Rocío; Hermida Gómez, Tamara; Blanco García, Francisco J; Fuentes Boquete, Isaac Manuel; Díaz-Prado, Silvia (MDPI, 2021-10-01)
      [Abstract] Background: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the capacity for self-renewal and multi-differentiation, and for this reason they are considered a potential cellular source in regenerative medicine of cartilage ...
    • Human cartilage engineering in an in vitro repair model using collagen scaffolds and mesenchymal stromal cells 

      Sanjurjo-Rodríguez, Clara; Castro Viñuelas, Rocío; Hermida Gómez, Tamara; Fuentes Boquete, Isaac Manuel; De-Toro, Javier; Blanco García, Francisco J; Díaz-Prado, Silvia (Ivyspring, 2017-09-28)
      [Abstract] The purpose of this study was to investigate cartilage repair of in vitro lesion models using human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) with different collagen (Col) scaffolds. Lesions were made ...
    • Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Articular Cartilage Repair: Preclinical Studies 

      Fernández-Pernas, Pablo; Barrachina, Laura; Marquina, Maribel; Rodellar, C.; Arufe, M.C.; Costa, Cristina (AO Research Institute Davos (ARI), 2020-08-26)
      [Abstract] Rheumatic diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA) are a major social and economic burden because of the population aging and the lack of curative solutions. An effective cell therapy may be the best treatment ...
    • Usefulness of mesenchymal cell lines for bone and cartilage regeneration research 

      Piñeiro-Ramil, María; Sanjurjo-Rodríguez, Clara; Castro Viñuelas, Rocío; Rodríguez-Fernández, Silvia; Fuentes Boquete, Isaac Manuel; Blanco García, Francisco J; Díaz-Prado, Silvia (MDPI, 2019-12-13)
      [Abstract] The unavailability of sufficient numbers of human primary cells is a major roadblock for in vitro repair of bone and/or cartilage, and for performing disease modelling experiments. Immortalized mesenchymal ...
