Comparative study between the effect of mesenchymal stem cells and/or platelet-rich plasma on bone parameters in ovariectomized mature rats

ConclusionBM-MSCs together with PRP can partially reverse OVX-induced bone loss and halt osteoporosis progression.AbbreviationsBM-MSCs: bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells, PRP: platelet-rich plasma, OVX: ovariectomized, ALK: alkaline phosphatase, CTX-1: cross linked c telopeptide of type 1 collagen, MDA: malondialdehyde, TNF- α: tumour necrosis factor-alpha.
