Mesenchymal Stem Cells Overexpressing Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) Inhibit Collagen Deposit and Improve Bladder Function in Rat Model of Bladder Outlet Obstruction

Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) caused by collagen deposit is one of the most common problems in elderly male. This study was performed to examine the capability of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) overexpressing hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to inhibit collagen deposition in rat model of bladd...
