Stem cell mobilization with plerixafor and healing of diabetic ischemic wounds: A phase IIa, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial

Abstract Bone marrow‐derived cells contribute to tissue repair, but traffic of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) is impaired in diabetes. We therefore tested whether HSPC mobilization with the CXCR4 antagonist plerixafor improved healing of ischemic diabetic wounds. This was a pilot, phase...
