Abstract:The canine has been a useful animal model for the study of fundamental mechanisms and the testing of new therapies for several human pathologies using mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). For preclinical applications, the most commonly used source of canine MSC is bone marrow. Because the amount of autologous bone marrow that can be obtained is limited, skin tissue could supply a noninvasive alternative with large quantities available for the establishment of MSC. In this study, we isolated canine MSC (cMSC) from ear… Show more
