VEGF overexpressed mesoangioblasts enhance urethral and vaginal recovery following simulated vaginal birth in rats

Abstract Vaginal birth causes pelvic floor injury which may lead to urinary incontinence. Cell therapy has been proposed to assist in functional recovery. We aim to assess if intra-arterial injection of rat mesoangioblasts (MABs) and stable Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-expressing MABs,...
