|
| Scientists investigated the role of erythropoietin receptor, which regulated the microenvironment-modulating function of MSCs, in eriodontal ligament stem cell-based periodontal therapy. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| The authors showed that in osteogenic cultures of adipose-derived stem cells, Noggin activated fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs), Src/Akt and ERK kinases, and it stabilized TAZ proteins in the presence of dexamethasone. [Scientific Reports] |

|
| Inspired by the local use of total flavonoids of Rhizoma Drynariae in the treatment of fracture, a novel 3D-printed HA/CMCS/PDA/TFRD scaffold with anti-infection, biodegradable and induced angiogenesis was designed, and to explore its preclinical value in segmental bone defect of tibia.

|
| Scientists investigated the therapeutic potential of bone marrow-derived MSCs treatments in spontaneous chronic colitis using the Winnie mouse model which closely replicated the presentation and inflammatory profile of ulcerative colitis. [Scientific Reports] |

|
|
| The authors provide a focused and detailed discussion on MSC-based gene therapy using interleukins and interferons, engineering techniques and insights on potential future advancements. [Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews] |
|
|
|
| Scientists review of the factors influencing the efficacy of MSCs transplantation and its association with platelet concentrates, investigating the impact of platelet concentrates’ composition, the age and health status of platelet donors, application methods, and environmental factors on the outcomes of treatments.
