Core Tip	Mesenchymal stem cells have been considered potential tools for therapeutic applications in a wide range of pathologies. However, these cells may be used to develop specific biomarkers in a broad range of diseases and they could be considered useful tools to perform new strategies to get early diagnoses. Rare stem cell populations can be studied by recent technologies such as Next Generation Sequencing in order to develop specific marker for diagnostic and prognostic applications.
