Regenerative medicine in aims to restore structure and function to tissues or organs damaged by time, disease or injury. Stem cells have great potential for tissue repair and regeneration, why they are intensely investigated in equine clinical research. However, before any type of stem cell can be applied in practice, it is crucial that the isolated stem cells have been definitively characterised by a set of specific functional or phenotypic markers. This project includes a surface mapping of equine mesenchymal (MSC) stem cell surface proteome.
