General procedure for isolating MSC subpopulations. Using the features that are known to be overexpressed from the desired subpopulation as sorting criteria, MSCs are separated through either flow cytometry for surface marker-based cell sorting or other methods such as size-based cell sorting. The isolated subpopulation of interest is then expanded before being used for tissue engineering applications.
