Methionine Affects the Expression of Pluripotency Genes and Protein Levels Associated with Methionine Metabolism in Adult, Fetal, and Cancer Stem Cells

Scientists revealed the differences in methionine metabolism of bone marrow (BM)-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), umbilical cord blood-MSCs, and cancer stem cells, which reflect different metabolic profiles and developmental stages of stem cells.
