Abstract (original English)

Stem cell therapy represents a transformative frontier in medical science, offering promising avenues for revolutionizing cancer treatment and advancing our understanding of neurobiology. This review explores innovative approaches in stem cell therapy that have the potential to reshape clinical practices and therapeutic outcomes in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In this dynamic and intriguing realm of cancer research, recent years witnessed a surge in attention toward understanding the intricate role of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These cells, capable of either suppressing or promoting tumors across diverse experimental models, have been a focal point in the exploration of exosome-based therapies. Exosomes released by MSCs have played a pivotal role, in unraveling the nuances of paracrine signaling and its profound impact on cancer development. Recent studies have revealed the complex nature of MSC-derived exosomes, showcasing both protumor and antitumor effects. Despite their multifaceted involvement in tumor growth, these exosomes show significant promise in influencing both tumor development and chemosensitivity, acting as a pivotal factor that increases stem cells' potential for medicinal use. Endogenous MSCs, primarily originating from the bone marrow, exhibited a unique migratory response to damaged tissue sites. The genetic modification of stem cells, includin
