Abstract: Multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPC)， initially separated from bone marrow， are rare and similar to the embryo endothelial cells. It has the stronger proliferation potentiality and amplification ability than bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells， so it can be continuously amplified for 120 generations without proliferation aging phenomenon. It is favored by the growing number of stem cell researchers. In this paper， we will review on the MAPC discovery and development process and prospects.
