Therapeutic Applications of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Canine Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Stem Cells in Veterinary Science

Abstract

The invention of mesenchymal stem cells has opened new prospects in regenerative medicine. The cells can be considered essential subjects for therapeutic application due to their specialised properties. Umpteen studies have been conducted in human medicine and so in veterinary practice. The studies on this cell type in these two fields can act as complementary and supplementary to each other. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) features, including the differentiation properties, tend to vary with source. In canine medicine, the application of MSCs is yet to be established as most of the studies being conducted are currently in the experimental settings and/or in the clinical trial stage. MSCs in the dog are evaluated in musculoskeletal and non-musculoskeletal affections with a positive but variable response. This chapter elaborates the currents status of MSCs’ application in dog medicine.
