Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are prevalent and debilitating diseases with limited clinical treatment strategies. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) are pluripotent stem cells with self-renewal capability and multiple immunomodulatory effects, which make them a promising therapeutic approach for IBDs. Thus, optimization of MSCs regimes is crucial for their further clinical application.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Numerous studies demonstrated that NLRP3 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) regulated the NLRP3 inflammasome, which has emerged as a novel therapeutic approach for treating IBD.
Objectives: The exact role of NLRP3 in regulating MSCs' function is unclear.
