Differentiated Adipose-derived Stem Cells Promote Reinnervation of Rat Skin Flaps

Differentiated Adipose-derived Stem Cells Promote Reinnervation of Rat Skin Flaps

Background: Sensory recovery of skin flaps is generally poor unless they are elevated as an innervated flap. The aim of this study was to elucidate if Schwann cell (SC)-like cells differentiated from adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) could improve the cutaneous nerve regeneration in skin flaps. Meth...
