Chronic asthma and Mesenchymal stem cells: Hyaluronan and airway remodeling
Abstract Background Previous studies have demonstrated that ovalbumin sensitization promotes chronic asthma phenotype in murine asthma model. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are multipotent cells in vitro that have been shown to decrease inflammation and can reverse airway remodeling when infus...
