Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Magnetic actuation is a valuable toolbox to remotely guide, engraft, and differentiate stem cells. • Magnetic-assisted tissue engineering makes possible the fabrication of tissue grafts scaffold-free from mesenchymal and induced pluripotent stem cells. • Combination of magnetic materials and magnetic force is a promising platform for the delivery of drugs and cells on demand.
