Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research into stem cells and their applications in disease modeling and therapy. Articles explore the role of various stem cell types, including intestinal epithelial stem cells, trabecular meshwork progenitor cells, cancer stem cells, neural stem cells, nail stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, adipose-derived stem cells, dental pulp stem cells, muscle satellite cells, skeletal stem cells, olfactory basal stem cells, and pluripotent stem cells. The research investigates mechanisms of stem cell differentiation, regeneration, and their interactions with disease processes such as diabetes, glaucoma, breast cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, kidney disease, and liver cirrhosis. Therapeutic strategies involving stem cells, extracellular vesicles, and biomaterials are also examined.
