| Objects | Magnetic flux density | Magnetic field direction | Exposure time | Effects | References | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| In vitro | Human BMSCs | 100 mT | Upward | 24 h | Combined MNPs enhanced wound healing by improving angiogenesis and fibroblast function | 45 |
| HUVECs | N/A | N/A | 7 days | In combination with magnetically responsive hydrogels markedly promoted cell proliferation | 46 | |
