Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are self-renewing cells found in almost all postnatal organs and tissues in the perivascular region. These cells present multiple characteristics that make them candidates to be applied in cell therapy for neurodegenerative diseases, such as their secretory action, migration to the lesion area, and immunomodulatory potential. These cells have a high capacity for mesodermal differentiation; however, numerous studies have shown that MSCs can also differentiate into neurons. However, despite posi tive results in multiple trials in which undifferentiated MSCs transplanted into animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, some studies suggest that the therapeutic effects obtained are enhanced by the use of MSCs differentiated towards the neuronal lineage before transplant. In this sense, there are several methods to induce in vitro reprogramming of MSCs towards the neuronal lineage, including chemical substances, growth factors, cocultures with neural lineage cells, transfection of genes, miRNAs, etc., and small molecules stand out. Therefore, this article compares multiple experimental tests in which these inducers promote neuronal differentiation of MSCs and identify those methods that originate an optimal neuronal differentiation. The analysis includes the percentage of differentiation, maturation, expression of neuronal markers, functionality, and cell survival considering the intrinsic characteristics of the MSCs used as the tissue of origin and the species from which they were isolated.
