The Effect of Environmental Conditions on Cell Fate

2.1] Short heat shock has a long-term effect on mesenchymal stem cells’ transcriptome

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal, non-hematopoietic cells with self-renewal and differentiation properties and are therefore a preferred source for cellular therapies. However, a better understanding of culture techniques is required to harness their full potential. Here we aim to compare the effects of short and long heat shock (HS) on the transcriptomic landscape of MSCs.
