Effect of CGRP-adenoviral vector transduction on the osteoblastic differentiation of rat adipose-derived stem cells.

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) promotes osteoblast recruitment and osteogenic activity. However, no evidence suggests that CGRP could affect the differentiation of stem cells toward osteoblasts. In this study, we genetically modified adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) by introducing the CGRP...
