Advances in basic research on mesenchymal stem cells and its clinical application in liver cirrhosis / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the features of high plasticity and low immunogenicity, and hold promise for wide clinical application. This article reviews the basic research on MSCs in bone marrow and umbilical cord blood and their clinical application in liver diseases to lay a theoretical foundation and provide support for their clinical application in liver cirrhosis, and to provide more technical measures for the treatment of end-stage liver disease. However, the safety and efficacy in clinical application still need further studies.
