Core Tip
Core Tip: Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation is an innovative therapy with positive therapeutic effects for many ischemic diseases. Ischemia of an area is defined as insufficient blood supply to specific tissues and various organs or individual parts of the body. The leading cause of tissue ischemia is the narrowing or blockage of the lumen of an artery, most often due to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, thrombus, or spasms of a specific artery. Here, the potential therapeutic mechanisms of MSCs in ischemic diseases were discussed, along with examples of preclinical and clinical studies.
