The Role of Low-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields on Mesenchymal Stem Cells Differentiation: A Systematic Review

Atiyeh Sadat Safavi et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the scientific literature on the effects of low-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on mesenchymal stem cell differentiation. The research found that EMFs can have positive effects on stem cell differentiation and accelerate the process. However, further study is needed to determine the specific parameters and application methods of the electrical field.

Highly specific differentiation of MSCs into neurons directed by local electrical stimuli triggered wirelessly by electromagnetic induction nanogenerator

Linlin Liang et al.

Summary: This study established a wireless triggered local electrical stimulation system to induce neuronal differentiation from rat bone-marrow-derived MSCs by using a highly conductive and flexible multi-wall carbon nanotube membrane combined with a rotating magnetic field. The system successfully generated well-differentiated neurons without nerve-inducing factors and showed promising effects in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Migrating Schwann cells direct axon regeneration within the peripheral nerve bridge

Qing Min et al.

Summary: Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system have the ability to promote repair of various tissues, including nerve gaps, skin wounds, digit tips, and tooth regeneration. They are highly motile, secrete signaling molecules, attract macrophages, support neuronal survival, promote axonal regrowth, and interact with other cell types in the regeneration process. The migration of Schwann cells is essential for successful tissue repair, especially in cases of peripheral nerve transection injuries where the cells form cords to guide axon regeneration. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of Schwann cell migration may lead to new therapeutic strategies for peripheral nerve repair.

Nerve growth factor (NGF) and NGF receptors in mesenchymal stem/stromal cells: Impact on potential therapies

Kangkang Zha et al.

Summary: The nerve growth factor (NGF) and its receptors TrkA and p75NTR play important roles in various aspects of mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) function, including survival, growth, differentiation, and angiogenesis. The regulatory effect of NGF on MSCs is mainly achieved through binding to TrkA, while p75NTR is considered a novel surface marker of MSCs. This understanding provides new insights for optimizing MSC-based therapy.

Effects of electromagnetic fields on neuronal ion channels: a systematic review

Federico Bertagna et al.

Summary: Research in recent decades has focused on the effects of different electromagnetic fields on the electrical properties of neurons, particularly voltage-gated ion channels. Changes in voltage-gated calcium channels have been found to be the most commonly reported result of electromagnetic field exposure. The effects of electromagnetic fields on the neuronal landscape appear to be diverse and highly dependent on factors such as the field's frequency, exposure time, and intrinsic properties of the irradiated tissue.

Nerve growth factor (NGF) with hypoxia response elements loaded by adeno-associated virus (AAV) combined with neural stem cells improve the spinal cord injury recovery

Qiuji Wu et al.

Summary: The study utilized adeno-associated virus to transfect neural stem cells, enabling them to specifically express nerve growth factor in hypoxic sites and promoting spinal cord injury repair. Experimental results showed that 5HRE-NGF-NSCs could improve motor function and neuronal survival in SCI rats, while also inhibiting autophagy and enhancing tissue repair.

Transplantation of engineered exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells ameliorate diabetic peripheral neuropathy under electrical stimulation

Anamika Singh et al.

Summary: This study developed a treatment approach for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) using a fused exosomal system combined with electrical stimulation, showing normalization of nerve conduction velocity and compound muscle action potential, muscle recovery, and observed paracrine effects in controlling hyperglycemia and tissue damage attenuation. It provides a promising effective treatment for DPN and contributes to cutting-edge therapeutic approaches.
