cell based therapeutics is one of the most rapidly advancing medical fields, bringing together a range of fields including transplantation, tissue engineering and regeneration, biomaterials and stem cell biology. however, traditional cell-based therapeutics have many limitations, one of which is their harmful effects exhibited on healthy body cells due to their lack of specificity. nanomedicine...

the identification of multipotential mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) derived from adult human tissues such as bone marrow and connective tissues has provided exciting prospects for cell-based tissue engineering and regeneration. this review article focuses on the biology of mscs, their differentiation potentials in vitro and in vivo, and their application in tissue engineering. our current unders...
