MSTN and type 2 diabetes mellitus: Using a T2D mouse model of CLI induced by severe unilateral femoral artery ligation, we tested: a) the repair efficacy of MDSC implanted into the ischemic muscle and the effects of concurrent intraperitoneal administration of a nitric oxide generator, molsidomine; and b) whether MDSC may partially counteract their own repair effects by stimulating the expression of myostatin, the main lipofibrotic agent in the muscle and inhibitor of muscle mass.
