Fibroblasts and mesenchymal stem cells: Two sides of the same coin?

abstract：:The single-copy gene of human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) encodes four co-expressed isoforms, with an apparent molecular weight (M(r)) of 24 kD, 22.5 kD, 22 kD, and 18 kD, co-translated from a single mRNA. As a tool for the study of the role exerted by the different bFGF isoforms in the biology of endothelia...
