Growing evidences are indicating that mesenchimal stem cells may promote tendon repair via paracrine-acting molecules targeting inflammatory and trophic processes.

Abstract
Growing evidences are indicating that mesenchimal stem cells may promote tendon repair via paracrine-acting molecules targeting inflammatory and trophic processes. To test this hypothesis we have studied the therapeutic potential of conditioned medium secreted by equine amniotic derived cells (AMCs-CM) in sixteen spontaneous different tendon and ligament injuries. Careful monitoring has proved the safety of these implants. Clinical outcomes were favorable and the significantly lower rate (12.5%) of re-injuries observed, compared to horses treated with bone marrow MSC, suggests that treatment with AMCs-CM has a proven efficacy. In conclusion, this study identifies AMCs-CM as a novel therapeutic biological cell-free product in the treatment of horse tendon and ligament diseases.Pubblicazioni consigliate
