Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Modulate Fibrosis and Inflammation in the Peritoneal Fibrosis Model Developed in Uremic Rats

Peritoneal fibrosis (PF) represents a long-term complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), affecting the peritoneal membrane (PM) function. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) display immunomodulatory effects and may represent a strategy to block PF. The aim of this study was to analy...
