Research topics from publications: The heterogeneity of mesenchymal stem cells: an important issue to be addressed in cell therapy; Cell-free DNA: a metabolic byproduct with diagnostic and prognostic potential in rheumatic disorders. Representative work: With the continuous improvement of human technology, the medical field has gradually moved from molecular therapy to cellular therapy. As a safe and effective therapeutic tool, cell therapy has successfully created a research boom in the modern medical field. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are derived from early mesoderm and have high self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation ability, and have become one of the important cores of cell therapy research by virtue of their immunomodulatory and tissue repair capabilities. In recent years, the application of MSCs in various diseases has received widespread attention, but there are still various problems in the treatment of MSCs, among whic The release of intracellular DNA into the extracellular area occurs via two pathways: cell death and active secretion by cells. The DNA, which is free in the extracellular space, is commonly known as Cell-Free DNA (cfDNA). In healthy people, the levels of cfDNA in the circulation are notably minimal. Within a healthy organism, cfDNA undergoes swift elimination and filtration upon release, ensuring a persistently low concentration in the bloodstream. Conversely, individuals suffering from diverse illnesses like stroke, trauma, myocardial infarction, and various cancers show markedly higher levels of cfDNA in their blood plasma or serum. Further research has shown that cfDNA is associated with
