Autologous bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cell implantation and endothelial function in a rabbit ischemic limb model.

Autologous bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cell implantation and endothelial function in a rabbit ischemic limb model.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine whether autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) implantation improves endothelial dysfunction in a rabbit ischemic limb model. METHODS: We evaluated the effect of MSC implantation on limb blood flow (LBF) responses to acetylcholine (ACh), an en...
