摘要

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy in regenerative medicine, demonstrating significant potential for clinical applications. Evidence suggests that MSCs not only exhibit multipotent differentiation potential but also exert critical therapeutic effects in retinal degenerative diseases via robust paracrine mechanisms. MSCs protect retinal cells from degenerative damage by modulating inflammation, inhibiting apoptosis, alleviating oxidative stress, and suppressing cell death pathways. Furthermore, MSCs contribute to retinal structural and functional stability by facilitating vascular remodeling and donating mitochondria to retinal cells. Of particular interest, MSC-derived exosomes have gained widespread attention as a compelling cell-free therapy. Owing to their potent anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and vascular-stabilizing properties, exosomes show significant promise for the treatment of retinal degenerative diseases.
