Methods of modifying stem cells, in particular mesenchymal stem cells, using electric or electromagnetic fields. In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods of modulating a mesenchymal stem cell activity, the method comprising administering electric stimulation to mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. In another embodiment, the present invention provides methods for the treatment of a human or other mammal subject in need thereof, comprising providing an in vitro culture comprising mesenchymal stem cells, administering an electric stimulation to the in vitro culture, and implanting the mesenchymal stem cells into the mammal subject. In another embodiment, the present invention provides methods for the treatment of a human or other mammal subject, the method comprising implanting mesenchymal stem cells into the mammal subject, and administering an electric stimulation to the mesenchymal stem cells in situ. The present invention also comprises compositions comprising mesenchymal stem cells treated with electric stimulation.
