Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on stem cell applications in regenerative medicine and disease modeling. Articles investigate the therapeutic potential of various stem cell types, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), for conditions such as osteonecrosis, wound healing, and thalassemia. The research also explores stem cell differentiation, mechanisms of action, and the development of in vitro models for studying diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disorders.
