Research Abstract |
In this study, we examined whether transplantation of rat or human DPSCs improve diabetic polyneuropathy. DPSCs were injected into unilateral hindlimb skeletal muscles of streprozotocin-induced diabetic animals. Transplantation of DPSCs ameliorated the decrease of sensation, sciatic nerve conduction velocity and sciatic nerve blood flow under the diabetic condition. Immunohistological study revealed that transplanted DPSCs existed in perimuscle bundle area without differentiation into osteoblasts or adipocytes. These results indicate that DPSCs are promising cell source for regenerative medicine and the transplantation of DPSCs may be a new therapy for diabetic polyneuropathy.
