Efficacy of topical mesenchymal stem cell therapy in the treatment of experimental dry eye syndrome model.

abstract：:Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are known to be useful for treating local bone diseases. However, it is not known if MSCs are effective for treating systemic bone diseases, as the risk for mortality following intravenous MSC administration has hindered research progress. In this study, we compared the safety and...
