Overview
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult stem cells known for their ability to differentiate into multiple cell types and their strong immunomodulatory properties, making them highly valuable in regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and cell therapy. To ensure their therapeutic effectiveness, it's crucial to rigorously confirm their ability to differentiate into specific cell types, such as osteoblasts and adipocytes.
Traditional endpoint assays for assessing MSC differentiation often fall short in providing dynamic insights, underscoring the need for advanced technologies that offer real-time, high-throughput, and multiparametric analysis.
