摘要

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising option for gene and cell therapy due to their unique biological properties. MSC-based cell therapies have garnered significant attention for various clinical applications; however, repeated administrations are often necessary to achieve sustained therapeutic effects. Genetic modification techniques have enhanced MSCs’ intrinsic capabilities, improving their therapeutic efficacy in both experimental and clinical settings. Key functional properties anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, survival, and migratory capacities have become central targets for genetic enhancement. Numerous studies have explored the genetic modification of MSCs to address overcoming the transient nature of their therapeutic effects. Notably, the safety of genetically engineered MSCs remains a critical concern in preclinical and clinical investigations.

In this review, we summarize current strategies for the genetic modification of MSCs and discuss recent findings on their application in animal disease models.
