title: [The role of some donor-host cell interactions in conditions of the regenerative process microenvironment].
abstract: The review is devoted to the analysis of experimental data about possible mechanisms of transdifferentiation or plasticity of tissue specific stem cells. Considerable attention is focused on the mechanisms and genetic consequences of fusion of different types of donor cells with the cells of recipient tissues which investigated on the models of cellular therapy of liver and heart diseases. The role of various kinds of cell contacts and their role in stem cells integration, reparation and regeneration of injured tissue and horizontal genes transfer are considered.
