Abstract: The article “Plasticity of human menstrual blood stem cells derived from the endometrium” by Lin et al. (2011), published in Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE B (Biomedicine & Biotechnology), described a newly identified mesenchymal-like stem cell (MSC) from human menstrual blood known as menSC. Here we describe the latest findings in this area and clarify the difference between human adult stem cells from menstrual blood and endometrial tissue.
