Biography
Postnatal mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from connective tissues are capable of developing into multiple cell lineages (myelosupportive stroma, adipocytes, smooth muscle cells, myoblasts, ligament cells, chondrocytes and osteoblasts). Our Lab examines the transcriptional, epigenetic and signalling factors that regulate MSC self-renewal, proliferation, multi-differentiation and immune cell modulation. These molecular processes are being investigated as underlying mechanisms mediating tissue repair, inflammation, tumour cell development and aged related diseases.
