B Cell Lymphoma-2-Modified Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Transplantation for the Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus-Induced Erectile Dysfunction in a Rat Model.

Objective: The study aimed to explore the effects of B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)-modified bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation for the treatment of diabetes mellitus-induced erectile dysfunction (DMED) in a rat model.

Methods: The DMED rat model was successfully established. Thirty-six DMED rats were assigned into the Bcl-2-BMSCs, null-BMSCs, BMSCs and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) groups.
