Since their first isolation and characterization by Friedenstein et al. in 1974, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were proven essential for tissue regeneration and homeostasis. Over the years, thanks to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of MSCs, several approaches with MSC-based therapies have been proposed, in order to treat different human diseases. In this light, MSCs are currently being tested in preclinical in vivo settings as well as in early-stage clinical trials for their ability to modulate immune responses, fostering wound healing and tissue regeneration of various tissue types and organs, including the skin, bone, cartilage, brain, muscle, and tendons.

Abstract
Since their first isolation and characterization by Friedenstein et al. in 1974, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were proven essential for tissue regeneration and homeostasis. Over the years, thanks to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of MSCs, several approaches with MSC-based therapies have been proposed, in order to treat different human diseases. In this light, MSCs are currently being tested in preclinical in vivo settings as well as in early-stage clinical trials for their ability to modulate immune responses, fostering wound healing and tissue regeneration of various tissue types and organs, including the skin, bone, cartilage, brain, muscle, and tendons.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
