| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We found novel somatic stem cells, which is successfully isolated from capillary pericytes using cellular specific marker. These cells can form capillary by their own, and have multipotency to differentiate to mesenchymaland neuronal cells. These cells, termed capillary stem cells, CapSCs have regenerative potency in several diseases such as peripheral ischemia. Now, we are developing new strategy using CapSCs for regenerative medicine.
