“…Engineered cells retained the immunophenotype of MSC; im-MSCs maintained the ability to differentiate into mesenchymal lineages in vitro; and im-MSCs showed stronger proliferative capacity than unengineered MSCs but without colony formation in soft agar, no tumorigenicity in the brain, and normal chromosomes. MSCs or im-MSCs co-cultured with U87 cells showed enhanced proliferation ability, but did not show malignant characteristics in vitro. …”
