Article Synopsis
- Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are being studied for their potential to protect and regenerate neurons during strokes, particularly by countering the effects of calcium and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
- The study observed that when SH-SY5Y neuronal cells were exposed to simulated ischemic stress, they experienced significant cell death characterized by increased pro-inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress markers.
- Coculturing these stressed neuronal cells with MSCs resulted in reduced cell death, increased anti-inflammatory cytokines, and decreased markers of apoptosis, highlighting MSCs' role in promoting neuroprotection.
