Human Fetal Membrane-Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Generate Functional Spinal Motor Neurons In Vitro

September 29, 2022

[iScience] Scientists demonstrated that human fetal membrane-MSCs could give rise to spinal motor neurons, by the sequential exposure to specific factors that induced a neuralization, caudalization and ventralization of undifferentiated cells

Mesenchymal Cell Replacement Corrects Thymus Hypoplasia in Murine Models of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
