Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Rebekah M. Samsonraj's research focuses on mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) and their applications in regenerative medicine and cellular therapy. Her work investigates the phenotypic and functional characteristics of various MSC sources, including bone marrow-derived and adipose-derived MSCs, as well as bovine MSCs. Recent publications explore the potential of MSC-derived extracellular vesicles for tissue repair and the impact of specific compounds, such as dasatinib and quercetin, on MSC characteristics. Additionally, her research examines the senescence-associated secretory phenotype of human bone marrow-derived MSCs and the phenotypic changes associated with long-term in vitro expansion.

Samsonraj's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 22, with 44 total publications and 2,261 total citations. She is recognized as a highly cited researcher. Her collaborative network includes Vitali Maldonado and I. Kade Karisma Ardana at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, and C. Lowry Barnes at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications.
