Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic and immunosuppressive properties and are a potent source for cell therapy. Cell fusion has been proposed for rapid generation of functional new reprogrammed cells. In t... Read More about β-MSCs: Successful fusion of MSCs with β-cells results in a β-cell like phenotype.
