Equine induced pluripotent stem cells have a reduced tendon differentiation capacity compared to embryonic stem cells
Tendon injuries occur commonly in horses and their repair through scar tissue formation predisposes horses to a high rate of re-injury. Pluripotent stem cells may provide a cell replacement therapy to improve tendon tissue regeneration and lower the frequency of re-injury. We have previously demonst...
