|
|
| Scientists developed a facile approach to fabricate a bionic scaffold perfectly combining bone extracellular matrix (ECM)-like microenvironment and robust mechanical properties. [ACS Nano] |
|
|
|
| Investigators explored the protective role of aspirin against the negative effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha on bone marrow MSCs chondrogenesis. [Cell Proliferation] |
|
|
|
| The authors found that the mitochondria derived from endometrial MSCs could significantly improve the quality of aged oocytes. [Cell Proliferation] |
|
|
|
| Investigators demonstrated that MSCs transfer mitochondria to stressed chondrocytes in cell culture and in injured cartilage tissue. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Scientists used forskolin, an adenylate cyclase agonist and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) inducer, to disrupt metabolism in human adipose-derived MSCs and investigate the effects of metabolic dysfunction on MSC senescence. [Stem Cells and Development] |
|
|
|
| The authors examined whether diabetic serum free fatty acids influenced the viability, differentiation, and fatty acid composition of the major lipid fractions of human adipose tissue-derived MSCs in vitro. [Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology] |
| |
|
|
| To determine if exogenous interleukin-2 (IL-2) in the tumor microenvironment could overcome immune checkpoint blockade resistance, researchers engineered MSCs to successfully deliver IL-2 mutein dimer to tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. [Nature Cell Biology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the combinatorial effect of human MSCs and extracellular vesicles on cartilage regeneration via co-encapsulation in a hyaluronic-acid-based hydrogel. [Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine] |
|
|
|
|
|
| The authors describe the current state of preclinical spheroid research and highlight two key examples of spheroid use in clinically relevant disease modeling. [npj Regenerative Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Investigators discuss the main mesenchymal cell populations of the prostate stroma, highlighting their dynamic role in the transition of the healthy prostate epithelium to cancer. [British Journal of Cancer] |
