What Does BMSC Stand For?

BMSC stands for Bone Marrow Stromal Cell

BMSC, or Bone Marrow Stromal Cell, refers to a type of cell found within the bone marrow that plays a crucial role in supporting hematopoiesis, the process of blood cell formation. BMSCs are a subset of mesenchymal stem cells that possess the ability to differentiate into various cell types, including osteoblasts, adipocytes, and chondrocytes. They also provide a supportive microenvironment for hematopoietic stem cells through the secretion of growth factors and the formation of extracellular matrix components. Due to their regenerative properties, BMSCs are of significant interest in therapeutic applications for various diseases and injuries.
