Urine-Derived Stem Cells: Challenges in Isolation, Biological Identity, and Therapeutic Potential in CKD-Associated Fibrosis
Urine-derived stem cells (UDSCs) have emerged as a promising cell source for regenerative medicine due to their non-invasive procurement, high proliferative capacity, and potential relevance to kidney-specific repair. Unlike conventional mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) obtained from bone marrow or adipose tissue, UDSCs o...
