Fig. 1From: Progress and emerging techniques for biomaterial-based derivation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs)Cellular and molecular properties of MSCs. MSCs display multipotency and different CD markers. They are great candidates for immune-regulation by means of T-cell and B-cell inhibition, as well as M2 phenotype encouragement. Paracrine secretion of different growth-regulating and inhibitory factors provides them distinct therapeutic properties to support other cellsBack to article page
