The optimal time to inject bone mesenchymal stem cells for fracture healing in a murine model

Abstract Background Bone marrow is an important source of stem cells, which can promote bone fracture healing. Methods We investigated the optimal time to inject bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in a C57 murine unilateral, transverse, femur fracture model. BMSCs transfected with red fluore...
