Impairment of sphincter muscles or their neural and vascular support leads to stress urinary
incontinence. The aim of this study was to determine the role of urine-derived stem cells …

To provide site-specific delivery and targeted release of growth factors to implanted urine-
derived stem cells (USCs), we prepared microbeads of alginate containing growth factors …

Traditional cell therapy technology relies on the maximum expansion of primary stem cells in
vitro, through multiple passages and potential differentiation protocols, in order to generate …

Purpose: We evaluated the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor overexpression on
urine derived stem cell survival and myogenic differentiation to determine whether these …

Objective To assess the possibility of ureter tissue engineering using vessel extracellular
matrix (VECM) and differentiated urine-derived stem cells (USCs) in a rabbit model. Methods …

We investigated whether fibrin glue (FG) could promote urethral sphincter restoration in
muscle-derived stem cell (MDSC)-based injection therapies in a pudendal nerve-transected …

PURPOSE: We explored the use of autologous muscle derived cells as a method of treating
stress urinary incontinence. We determined whether urethral muscle derived cell injection is …

Objective To explore the myoblast formation around the urethra and increase in urethral
resistance of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells or muscle‐like cells/calcium alginate …

Reconstruction of the bladder wall via in vitro differentiated stem cells on an appropriate
scaffold could be used in such conditions as cancer and neurogenic urinary bladder. This …

Acquired or congenital abnormalities may lead to urethral damage or loss, often requiring
surgical reconstruction. Urethrocutaneous fistula and strictures are common complications …
