Compare the effects of intravenous and intraperitoneal mesenchymal stem cell transplantation on ultrafiltration failure in a rat model of chronic peritoneal dialysis

Abstract

The UFF group had a high permeability UFF. These results showed that IV and IP MSC transplantation exerted positive effects on UFF in a chronic rat model of PD. However, healing effect of small solute transport in MSC-IP group was better than MSC-IV group. IP MSC transplantation may be more effective than IV MSC transplantation for the renewal of the peritoneum in chronic PD patients with UFF.
