A Systematic Review of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Spinal Cord Injury, Intervertebral Disc Repair and Spinal Fusion
Summary
Numerous studies reported better results when the mesenchymal stem cells were used in co-culture with other cells or used in scaffolds. Mesenchymal stem cells were also found to have an immune-modulatory role, which can improve surgical outcome.

Autologous mesenchymal stem cells offer a new paradigm for salivary gland regeneration
Over 60% of patients receiving treatment for head and neck cancers experience radiation-induced salivary gland damage. The study suggests this could provide a definitive treatment rather than just symptom management for the millions of people suffering from dry mouth conditions.
Randomized controlled study for the anti-aging effect of human adipocyte-derived mesenchymal stem cell media combined with niacinamide after laser therapy
The combination of stem cells and niacinimide improved skin through multiple mechanisms - reducing inflammation, protecting collagen structure, promoting collagen production, and enhancing skin repair - resulting in measurable improvements in wrinkles, pigmentation, and overall skin appearance that both patients and doctors could observe.
