The technical application of chemokines in in Situ tissue engineering

摘要

Chemokines can recruit adult stem cells/progenitor cells which express chemokine receptors in blood circulation or local tissues via combination with their related receptors.Then, these cells migrate to injury sites to modulate cell proliferation and differentiation leading to tissue regeneration.The studies about chemokines applying to in situ tissue engineering technique are increasingly popular owing to its favorable use in clinical practice.This review is meant to talk about current research status, application and future prospect of chemokines application in in situ tissue engineering technique.
