Key takeaways
- MSC ≠ HSC.
- Each has different sources and contexts.
- Marker verification confirms the category.
- Ask which one is actually being discussed.
MSCs
Mesenchymal stromal / stem cells come from sources such as bone marrow, fat tissue, or umbilical cord. They are the cells most often discussed in regenerative wellness consultation.
HSCs
Hematopoietic stem cells are blood-forming cells, typically discussed in hematology contexts such as bone marrow transplantation.
Why this matters
Some marketing material blurs the two categories. A direct question — 'Is this MSC or HSC?' — clarifies the discussion.
Marker verification
Standard MSC markers (CD90, CD73, CD105 positive; CD34, CD45 negative) help verify identity. Ask for the certificate of analysis.
