A Rat Model of Radiation Vasculitis for the Study of Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Based Therapy

Radiation vasculitis is one of the most common detrimental effects of radiotherapy for malignant tumors. This is developed at the vasculature of adjacent organs. Animal experiments have showed that transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) restores vascular function after irradiation. But the...
