Abstract

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising source for bone regeneration. Recently, in Nature Medicine, Liu et al. (2011) reported that host lymphocytes secrete IFN-γ and TNF-α to initiate apoptosis of transplanted MSCs and that aspirin can alleviate these effects to improve bone repair.
