Human adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells can survive and integrate into the adult rat eye following xenotransplantation

Abstract

The survival of the HAD-MSCs for a period of 90 days in VH and even longer period of up to 6 months in other eye tissues makes them a promising source to be considered in regenerative medicine of eye diseases. However, the potency of crossing the BRB by the implanted cells suggests that use of HAD-MSCs must be handled with extreme caution.
