Advances in stem cell therapy for musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders,including femoral head necrosis and osteoarthritis,are the leading cause of non-fatal disability,and therefore more sophisticated treatment options need to be explored.Currently,mesenchymal stem cell therapies,especially the therapeutic strategy of allogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells,have been shown to have significant therapeutic effects for various musculoskeletal disorders.This article summarizes the current research progress in MSC therapy for musculoskeletal disorders in order to further promote the clinical application of stem cell therapies.
