Rat Marrow Stromal Cells (RMSC) are isolated from rat bone marrow and are cryopreserved at second passage. RMSC can be cultured and propagated 10 population doublings. In addition to supporting hematopoietic cells1, marrow stromal cells can be induced to differentiate and express the traits of multiple cell lineages, including connective tissue (such as bone, cartilage, and fat)2,3,4,5 and neural cells6,7. The multipotent potential of RMSC in vitro provides new avenues for cell-based therapy, and studies have demonstrated the use of 3-D scaffolds for tissue engineering using RMSC8,9,10.
