Assessment of therapeutic efficacy of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells administration in hyperlipidemia-induced aortic atherosclerosis in adult male albino rats.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a common disease seriously detrimental to human health. AS is a chronic progressive disease related to inflammatory reactions. The present study aimed to characterize and evaluate the effects of adipose tissue stem cells (ADSCs) in high-fat diet-induced atherosclerosis in a rat model.
