This study demonstrates that partial MSC induced by taurine and EGF can differentiate into neuron-like cells or RHOS positive cells in vitro, which may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of some forms of retinal degeneration

(MAP Kinase Signaling System) :
Since EGF strongly upregulates EGR1, we hypothesized that EGF receptor (EGFR)-EGR1 signaling plays a pivotal role in MSC paracrine activity
