Abstract:Objectives: Cytarabine is one of the potent chemotherapeutic drugs, that has many cytotoxic side effects. Our study was conducted to evaluate the possible ability of systemically injected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) to ameliorate the cytotoxicity caused by Cytarabine in the submandibular salivary glands of rats.Methods: 30 albino male rats with weights 200-250gm were divided equally into three groups. Group I (control group). Group II (Cytarabine group) at a dose of (100 mg/kg) for five consecu… Show more
