Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Neha B Sapkal"
- Neha B Sapkal's research focuses on the characteristics and applications of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), particularly those derived from human gingival tissues, investigating their growth and immunomodulatory properties across different donor ages.
- One significant finding indicates that human gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) maintain their therapeutic potential regardless of the donor's age, challenging prior assumptions about age-related deterioration in stem cell quality and quantity.
- Additionally, her work explores scaffold-free spheroids in tissue engineering, highlighting their advantages, such as improved cell survival and enhanced cell-to-cell interactions over traditional scaffold-based methods, while mitigating issues related to inflammation and foreign body responses.
