Attenuation of Osteoarthritis Progression via a Combination of Intra-articular Injection of Synovial Membrane-derived MSCs (SMMSCs), Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Conditioned Medium (Secretome)
Abstract:Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) as a progressive destructive disease of articular cartilage is the most common joint disease characterized by reduction of joint cartilage thickness, demolition of cartilage surface and new bone formation. To overcome these problems, the purpose of the current research was to evaluate and compare the in vivo effects of Synovial membrane-derived MSCs (SMMSCs), platelet rich plasma (PRP) and conditioned medium (secretome) on collagenase II-induced rat knee osteoarthritis (KOA) r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
