Control of Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Altering the Geometry of Nanofibers

Effective differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is required for clinical applications. To control MSC differentiation, induction media containing different types of soluble factors have been used to date; however, it remains challenging to obtain a uniformly differentiated population of a...
