This patent covers the pluripotent colony stimulating factor, a type of cytokine that is not really described in terms of modern nomenclature in this patent.
The use of such stem cell stimulatory cytokines that come from the hematopoietic system should be explored for other types of stem cells...this is especially since there is so much similarity between stem cells of various tissues not only in terms of function, but also in terms of receptor expression
