Comparison of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells therapeutic potentials in rabbits' cartilage defects: Μacroscopic and histological outcomes.

Mesenchymal stem cells are safe and effective for treating joint injuries. However, the most suitable cell source remains controversial. This randomized controlled, double-blind study aimed to evaluate the potentials of rabbit allogeneic bone marrow- (BMSCs), adipose- (ASCs) and synovial membrane- (SDSCs) derived stem cells encapsulated in fibrin glue (FG) in vivo.
