Synergistic potential of stem cells and microfluidics in regenerative medicine

Regenerative medicine has immense potential to revolutionize healthcare by using regenerative capabilities of stem cells. Microfluidics, a cutting-edge technology, offers precise control over cellular microenvironments. The integration of these two fields provides a deep understanding of stem cell behavior and enables the development of advanced therapeutic strategies. This critical review explores the use of microfluidic systems to culture and differentiate stem cells with precision. We examined the use of microfluidic platforms for controlled nutrient supply, mechanical stimuli, and real-time monitoring, providing an unprecedented level of detail in studying cellular responses. The convergence of stem cells and microfluidics holds immense promise for tissue repair, regeneration, and personalized medicine. It offers a unique opportunity to revolutionize the approach to regenerative medicine, facilitating the development of advanced therapeutic strategies and enhancing healthcare outcomes.
