Human chorionic villous mesenchymal stem/stromal cells protect endothelial cells from injury induced by high level of glucose
Abstract Background Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells derived from chorionic villi of human term placentae (pMSCs) protect human endothelial cells from injury induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In diabetes, elevated levels of glucose (hyperglycaemia) induce H2O2 production, which causes the endotheli...
