Mesenchymal Stem Cells

MSCs derived from the placenta or iPSCs display the lowest levels of ACE2 expression and the best anti-inflammatory properties

A new article establishes that human mesenchymal stem cells are not permissive to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection

A new study describes the interactions controlling how macrophages engulf cytoplasmic components of MSCs and undergo transcriptional reprogramming

EVs derived from lithium preconditioned MSCs possess enhanced therapeutic potential in the treatment of stroke

EEMs reduce inflammation and improve ligament strength, while exosomes decrease scar size and increase collagen organization and production

Extracellular vesicles from mechanically stimulated osteocytes drive MSC recruitment and osteogenesis and may represent a cell-free bone regeneration strategy

The identification of biomarkers that correlate with chondrogenic potential and trophic repair during MSC aging may lead to improved osteoarthritis treatments

A new review summarizes progress in our understanding of the biology of sensory nerve function in stem cell niches

A new article reports the engineering of cardiac repair competent stem cells using Brachyury, a mesodermal transcription factor
