A Novel Model for Acute Peripheral Nerve Injury in the Horse and Evaluation of the Effect of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Applied in situ on Nerve Regeneration: a Preliminary Study

Transplantation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) to sites of experimentally-created nerve injury in laboratory animals has shown promising results in restoring nerve function. This approach for nerve regeneration has not been reported in horses. In this study, we first evaluated the in vitro abil...
