Abstract

The article discusses research on the effectiveness of stem cell therapy in the treatment of tendinitis and osteoarthritis in equine medicine. It aims to characterize the adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in horse. It looks at collagenase digestion as the basis of the process of isolating the nucleated cell fraction from the adipose tissue. A proposed standard protocol to ensure the correct characterization of equine mesenchymal stem cells is also discussed.
