From the laboratory bench to the patient’s bedside: an update on clinical trials with mesenchymal stem cells.

• Johnny Torres

Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are non-hematopoietic multi-potent stem-like cells which are able to differentiating into each mesenchymal and non-mesenchymal lineages. In actual fact, along with bone, cartilage, fats, and myoblasts, it has been demonstrated that MSCs are able to differentiating into neurons and astrocytes in vitro and in vivo. MSCs are of curiosity as a…
