Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) hold promise for cell-based therapies due to their ability to stimulate tissue repair and modulate immune responses. Umbilical cord-derived MSCs from Wharton jelly (WJ) offer advantages such as low immunogenicity and potent immune modulatory effects. However, ensuring consistent quality and safety throughout their manufacturing process remains critical. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) emerges as a crucial tool for assessing genetic stability and expression dynamics in cell-based therapeutic products.
