VEGFA and stroke disorder: Chen et al. (2012) found that the transplantation of rat ADMSCs for treating ICH rats demonstrated the differentiation of neuron-like and astrocyte-like cells around the injured site and improved the expression level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) for the recovery of neurological function. Yang et al. (2012) employed the injection of ADMSCs generated from a 65-year-old male donor’s fat tissue into the right femoral vein of ICH-induced stroke rats, which suggested that ADMSC transplantation could facilitate functional recovery of the experimental animals.
