Differentiation Potential of Multipotent Progenitor Cells Derived from War-Traumatized Muscle Tissue
1 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
Background: Recent military conflicts have resulted in numerous extremity injuries requiring complex orthopaedic reconstructive procedures, which begin with a thorough débridement of all contaminated and necrotic tissue in the zone of injury. The site of injury is also the site of healing, and we propose that débrided muscle tissue contains cells with robust reparative and regenerative potential. Methods:...
