Tissue repair following skin injury is a complex process that encompasses hemostasis, inflammation, tissue cell proliferation, and structural remodeling. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are derived from the mesodermal layer of tissues and possess multidirectional differentiation potential and self-renewal capabilities. MSCs from various sources, including the bone marrow, adipose tissue, dental pulp, umbilical cord, and amniotic membrane, have demonstrated effectiveness in promoting skin injury repair. They aid in this process by fostering the formation of new blood vessels in damaged tissues, self-renewal, or transdifferentiation into skin or sweat gland cells. Moreover, MSCs promote the proliferation and migration of skin cells, reduce wound inflammation, and restore the extracellular matrix through paracrine secretion. In this paper, we review recent findings regarding MSCs and their role in burn wound repair. Additionally, we explore the potential of combining MSCs with various biomaterials for treating burn wounds and analyze clinical cases wherein MSCs were administered to patients, offering insights into ongoing research on MSC-based therapies for skin injuries.

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a cytokine involved in the immune-inflammatory response. It can induce an odontoblastic phenotype and enhance biomineralization in dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells but does not have the same effect on osteoblasts. The reasons for this differential response, despite the shared lineage of these cell types, are not yet clear.

Crosstalk between leukemic cells and their surrounding mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the bone marrow microenvironment is crucial for the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and is mediated by extracellular vesicles (EVs). The EV-specific miRNAs derived from MDS-MSCs remain poorly explored. EVs isolated from HS-5, an immortalized stromal cell line, promoted the proliferation and 5-azacytidine (AZA) resistance of SKM-1 cells.

The poor prognosis constitutes a significant difficulty for spinal cord injury (SCI) individuals. Although mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold promises as advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) for SCI patients, challenges such as Good Manufacturing Practice-compliant manufacturing, cellular senescence, and limited therapeutic efficacy continue to hinder their clinical translation. Recent advances have identified botanical nanovesicles (BNs) as potent bioactive mediators capable of "priming" MSCs to self-rejuvenate, augment paracrine effect, and establish inflammatory tolerance.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patient-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) behave differently than normal ones, creating a more protective environment for leukemia cells, making relapse harder to prevent. This study aimed to identify prognostic biomarkers and elucidate relevant biological pathways in AML by leveraging microarray data and advanced bioinformatics techniques. We retrieved the GSE122917 dataset from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus and performed differential expression analysis (DEA) within R Studio to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among healthy donors, newly diagnosed AML patients, and relapsed AML patients.

Background: Several studies have suggested that adult human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) may be a potential alternative source to mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapies. This study aims to characterize HDFa, adipose-derived stem cells (ADMSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to investigate their proliferation, differentiation potential, mitochondrial respiration, and metabolomic profile. We identified molecules and characteristics that would differentiate MSCs from different sources or confirm their uniformity.
