Bone mesenchymal stem cells transplanted into rabbit intervertebral discs can increase proteoglycans.
Clin Orthop Relat Res. 2005 Jan;(430):219-26 Authors: Zhang YG, Guo X, Xu P, Kang LL, Li J We sought to determine whether transplanted allogeneic bone mesenchymal stem cells can survive and increase the amount of proteoglycans in intervertebral discs.
