How Do Macrophages Trigger Stem Cells to Heal Injuries?
We wanted to see, could you just take nampt and add it into an injury sit and would that allow that injury to heal better? We did what we call a volumetric muscle last injury in a mouse leg. Then we introduced nap in a little gell like substance that allows namp to stay in the wound side.
