Fibrin Microthreads Promote Stem Cell Growth for Localized Delivery in Regenerative Therapy

"Recent evidence suggests that delivering human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) to the infarcted heart reduces infarct size and improves ventricular performance. However, cell delivery systems have critical limitations such as inefficient cell retention and poor survival, and lack targeted local...
