Abstract
Autophagy is crucial for maintaining mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) function.
- Age-related deficits in ligament healing may be linked to changes in MSC autophagic activity.
- The role of autophagy in MSC function is not fully understood.
- Overexpression of a protein involved in autophagy, ATG5, was evaluated for its potential effects on healing and regeneration.
