Core Tip The study by Ababneh et al underscores the impact of differentiation protocols on induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cell (iMSC) functionality, revealing variations in osteogenesis, adipogenesis, proliferation, and migration. Recent advancements, including artificial intelligence-guided optimization and CRISPR-edited iMSCs, enhance standardization and safety. Future research should address donor diversity, scalability, and engraftment challenges through multi-donor studies, automated bioreactors, and advanced gene editing to utilize therapeutic potential of iMSCs in regenerative medicine.
